Hello every one, It was great to be part of it ( even with my small project ) . A lot of ideas , a lot of cleverness .. Christopher, you beat me with the mythical destination beach .
I remember going to a geocache with one of you .. near Washington .. Amazing ..
Every one, have beautiful and calm beach and big fish .
Brigitte
Writing as perhaps the only retired person on this list, I warmly
accept the Science Working Group joining me in retirement! I'll
happily buy the SWG an early afternoon drink with an umbrella the
next time I see the SWG on the beach in the mythical retirement
tropical destination beach of my mind. More seriously, things come, things go. As a project manager
I've been told that the stages of a project are forming, storming,
norming, performing and mourning.
Put a fork in it, it is done!
Matt beat me to it about the fish... _Christopher

So long and thanks for all the fish.
Thanks Jay,

about it?
I think I somehow overlooked that opportunity to nominate you.
My apologies. Even so, it would take more than the two of us
to make a Working Group serve its purpose. My day job no
longer allows this effort. So for my part it would be on my
spare time.

are correct to make a motion that we should retire the working
group. Please allow me to follow suit with Philip and second
that motion. We can sync up with EF to figure out the next
steps.

After taking over as PMC chair, I emailed the list several
times to ask for project leads to join a meeting and I think
Philip was the only person to respond. I believe that we
should ask the EMO for guidance on this and make moves to
adjust membership and retire projects as needed.
Yes, even if we do retire the Working Group. I don’t feel like
much is lost. Many enough of us are still around to keep at
least some of the projects going. So I agree we should focus
on getting the PMC working in a good manner. If opportunity
arises to do more, we can. Retiring the Working Group is
simply good bookkeeping.
I do support asking the EMO for guidance. But as you may
remember, this process is already in work. TeXlipse for
example was about to be retired just recently.

I’m not growing tomatoes, but I do have a five Trinidad Naga
Scorpion, and one Scottish Black Bonnet bushes thriving. I
might throw something, but I fear you will like it too much
;-)

Missed you at EclipseCon. Maybe next time Jay,
