Thank you, Jinwoo, for this kind message. And thank you to everyone for not
only the warm welcome but also this opportunity to serve as a Geode committer.
It is an honor for me.
I'm an open source program manager at SAS Institute Inc., where I help the
organization with all aspects of its open source strategy—from compliance to
contribution to community architecture. Since last year, I've been working
with the merry band of Geode developers at SAS (several of whom are now Geode
committers and PMC members) who have begun ushering Geode into its sparkling
new era. I'm not a software developer (I'm a writer, editor, and academic by
training), but I have been passionate about open source software for decades
and am delighted to have this opportunity to participate more formally in an
open source software project.
I'm looking forward to collaborating with you all.
Sincerely,
Bryan
