Re: [aspectj-users] Farewell and thanks

My sentiments echo those of the rest of the well-wishers. Good luck Jim, we'll miss you!

Cheers,
Nick

Hello Jim,

I was always very impressed with you insights into new language features for AspectJ. I also admired your insistence on seeing real use cases before adding any new feature to the language. Your insight and leadership led to the creation of the cleanest AOP language.

Thank you very much for your contributions to AspectJ. I wish you the very best at Microsoft.

I have just accepted an offer to join the Common Language Runtime (CLR) team at Microsoft. Over the past year I've been spending increasing time working
with this platform and becoming excited by its potential.  If you're
interested in more information about this work go to http://ironpython.com.

As a result of this move, I have resigned my position as a committer on the AspectJ project. It was just over a year ago that I transferred the project lead position to Adrian Colyer. Since then, Adrian has done an amazing job including the recent 1.2 release and I can't imagine a better person to take
AspectJ further.
It's been a wild and fun 5 years for me working with AspectJ. I want to thank all of my co-workers on the AspectJ team through the years. I also want to thank the users of AspectJ who continually gave me the encouragement to keep driving this technology forward. I'll always have a warm spot in my heart for those brave souls who used AspectJ as early as 0.7 in production
systems.  It's been an amazing time.

Thanks and keep in touch,
Jim Hugunin
