Thank you everyone. It looks like we have consensus (and votes by PMC members). According to "How to change your PMC's Chair" I have prepared the resolution below that I will send in 24 hours. The change should be in effect if the Board approves it, at the next Board meeting on Dec 19, 2018
----- ## Resolution to change the chair of a project A. Change the Apache Cordova Project Chair WHEREAS, the Board of Directors heretofore appointed Shazron Abdullah (shazron) to the office of Vice President, Apache Cordova, and WHEREAS, the Board of Directors is in receipt of the resignation of Shazron Abdullah from the office of Vice President, Apache Cordova, and WHEREAS, the Project Management Committee of the Apache Cordova project has chosen by vote to recommend Jesse MacFadyen (purplecabbage) as the successor to the post; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that Shazron Abdullah is relieved and discharged from the duties and responsibilities of the office of Vice President, Apache Cordova, and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that Jesse MacFadyen be and hereby is appointed to the office of Vice President, Apache Cordova, to serve in accordance with and subject to the direction of the Board of Directors and the Bylaws of the Foundation until death, resignation, retirement, removal or disqualification, or until a successor is appointed.
