Many thanks, Kevin... appreciate you stepping up to take over this role. And for everyone else... I just to say this is in no way me stepping away from the project, rather it is to help develop expertise/knowledge within our PMC (project management committee) and beyond. I've been the PMC chair since the framework graduated from the incubator in 2012, and it was me in fact that took the original naked objects framework into Apache in the first place in 2010. But Apache Isis isn't "my" project, it is everyone's project, and changing our PMC chair is a part of that.
