Job news!
Starting this week I’m switching back to an individual contributor role to work on Lightwell. (https://www.redhat.com/en/lightwell)
Still working to figure out the shape of the new job, but the essence is: we intend to make this good for upstreams. Not as a “way to give back” or mere marketing claims, but because that’s the only way this works long-term. I’m going to help make that intention into fact.

@mattdm@hachyderm.io Congrats on the change. As a person who did a 6-months gig as a manager and ran away screaming I am totally with you and wish you all the best with a new role. And I think you are exactly the person who can make the project Lightwell make sense :)
