Hi Paolo,

I agree that it is desirable for a project lead to be more actively involved in
the project from a development point of view and I can therefore understand that
you feel it is time to "hand over the helm" :-)
I think I can speak for the community that we would very much like to keep you as
committer on the Hono project and that we hope that you will find some time again
to help us evolving Hono even further.

I agree, I fully support that proposal and I hope the rest of the committers will
as well.

Thanks a lot for your service as project lead and for your valuable contributions
to Hono, Paolo! I really appreciate it. Are you going to start the project lead
election with the Eclipse Foundation and indicate to them that you will step back
from the project lead role?
