for me to step down and step back from active management and oversight of this project.

It's been a fascinating experience. I've learned a lot from all of you. I have no regrets, just good feelings all around.

Yet, it's been long enough, and I need to step back and out.

I'll continue to serve as chair until a replacement is appointed, but we must now choose a replacement for my position.

There are many in the community today who are very well qualified to serve. The question is whether they choose to serve.

With that, I'd like to open self nominations for chair of the OpenJPA project. In a few days, nominees should have been identified. People should feel free to second nominations with whatever comments they choose.

A few days later, we should have a vote to recommend to the board whom the community wants to be the chair. Usually, the board will go along with the recommendation of the community.

Let the nominations begin!
