Hi,

I would like to join with my colleagues in thanking Marshall for his 
outstanding work and continued support of UIMA world.
I believe your work on UIMA will bring joy to many people like it did to me 
while working on my master thesis :).

I am happy to endorse Richard in taking the next PPMC chair and thank him for 
his dedication and commitment to the UIMA community.

Best,
Viorel

Hi all,

I also would like to thank Marshall for having served as PMC chair as well
as core developer for UIMA for so many years!
I also support Richard in being the next PMC chair, thanks Richard for
taking the nomination :-)

Hi,


I can only agree with the others.


Thanks Marshall for your tremendous work.


Richard is a logical choice. Additionally to the already mentioned
arguments, he is an ASF member and knows the Apache Way as well as the
duties of a PPMC. And he is also involved in many UIMA-related projects
outside of ASF, e.g., dkpro-core, WebAnno, INCEpTION ...


Best,


Peter

Hi everyone,

After a decade of serving as the UIMA Project's PMC Chairperson, I've
decided to
step down as the UIMA PMC chair, as soon as we can reach a consensus on
a new
chairperson.

I have found being the chairperson of this project and working with the
community on it, to be extremely personally rewarding, for which I am
very
grateful.  My own personal job role has shifted considerably over these
years,
and I now find that I currently do not have time to focus on this role.

It's a good policy to have new people with fresh energy step up into
this role
from time to time.

In terms of possible candidates, I see that Richard Eckart de Castilho
has
recently become quite active, and has picked up the activity around the
core
uimaj project as well, including working on many tricky internal
issues;  if he
were willing, I think he would be a very good candidate as the next PMC
chair.
Please express your opinions, and let's form a consensus, which we can
then
formalize with a [VOTE].

-Marshall
