Hey guys, Sorry for the delay, I've been on vacation in the mountains with no internet and no cell phone, it was great!
I'll gladly volunteer for the Usergrid PMC Chair role. Dave has done a fantastic job leading us through the Apache process during incubation, and I would like to assist in this process as the project matures. I feel taking this role on would be the next step in my Apache membership evolution. Thoughts?
