1 | title: Ton Voon Resigns as Team Leader | ||
2 | date: 2011-11-04 | ||

5 | Due to personal reasons, I am resigning from being the team leader for the | ||
6 | Nagios Plugins.<end-of-teaser> | ||
7 | |||
8 | It's almost 7 years to the day since I started as team leader and I've been | ||
9 | honoured to have had a great team of people that have helped with coding and | ||
10 | translations and responding to the mailing lists. I'm particularly proud of | ||
11 | the Nagios::Plugin perl module, originally created by Gavin Carr, and some of | ||
12 | the fantastic tests added into the plugins code, started by Nathan Vonnahme. | ||
13 | Also Benoit Mortier did a great job on setting up the translations framework. | ||
14 | I also recall, when I first joined the team 9 years ago, racing with Matthew | ||
15 | Kent to get the most CVS commits! | ||
16 | |||
17 | Other team members that have contributed over my tenure include Peter Bray, | ||
18 | Sean Finney, Ethan Galstad, Subhendu Ghosh, Stanley Hopcroft, Harper Mann and | ||
19 | Michael Wirtgen - thanks to all of them for their valuable time to make the | ||
20 | Nagios Plugins better. | ||
21 | |||
22 | I especially want to thank Thomas Guyot-Sionnest, Matthias Eble and Holger | ||
23 | Weiss. Not only have they spent the most hours improving all aspects of this | ||
24 | project (the gnulib integration is just awesome!), but they've been the best | ||
25 | guys to work with: thanks for keeping me sane, encouraging me when you think I | ||
26 | am right and for being honest enough to tell me when I am wrong. I owe you | ||
27 | all a big drink next time we meet. | ||
28 | |||
29 | Thanks to all the great community contributions and all the email messages | ||
30 | that have provoked, inspired and enlightened. | ||
31 | |||
32 | Holger will be taking over the responsibility of team leader in the next | ||
33 | chapter of the Nagios Plugins. | ||
34 | |||
35 | Regards, | ||
36 | Ton | ||
