Tyler and all, Thinking back to day 1 of the HOT Summit and Tyler's launch into the ED role - wow - 6 months has flown by and so much has happened; it truly showcases the fast-pace and difficulty of the job. Having known some of the other candidates, I want to give a quick Thank You to the hiring committee for what I'm sure was not an easy choice. Personally, it has been a pleasure working with and getting to know Tyler; it's also really amazing to me that we actually got to spend time face-to-face at 3 conferences in those 6 months (and for those who don't know, Tyler and I were actually roommates in Dar Es Salaam during the Africa Open Data Conference). Besides being easy to get along with, Tyler has shown a tireless commitment to our mission and since the first time we had a chance to talk has focused the conversation on how the ED can further support the work of the HOT community while gently hammering out a long-term strategy for the organization's success.
Tyler, you have done well; congratulations and I look forward to continuing to our work together. =Russ On Tue, Oct 6, 2015 at 2:43 AM, Enock Seth Nyamador <kwadzo...@gmail.com> wrote: > Congratulations Tyler.
