Thanks! You did a great job. Looking back you made some very tough and healthy 
decisions. Neutron has a new lease on life!
It is tradition that the exiting PTL buy drinks for the community :)

Subject: [openstack-dev] [neutron] PTL Non-Candidacy

I'm writing to let everyone know that I do not plan to run for Neutron PTL for 
a fourth cycle. Being a PTL is a rewarding but difficult job, as Morgan 
recently put it in his non-candidacy email [1]. But it goes further than that 
for me. As Flavio put it in his post about "Being a PTL" [2], it's a full time 
job. In the case of Neutron, it's more than a full time job, it's literally an 
always on job.

I've tried really hard over my three cycles as PTL to build a stronger web of 
trust so the project can grow, and I feel that's been accomplished. We have a 
strong bench of future PTLs and leaders ready to go, I'm excited to watch them 
lead and help them in anyway I can.

As was said by Zane in a recent email [3], while Heat may have pioneered the 
concept of rotating PTL duties with each cycle, I'd like to highly encourage 
Neutron and other projects to do the same. Having a deep bench of leaders 
supporting each other is important for the future of all projects.

See you all in Tokyo!
Kyle
