P.S. I should have made it clear that the vote is intended for project
committers. However if anyone else wants to reply too, feel free!

Hello all,
a couple of months back, Andy Piper gave notice of his wish to step
down as Eclipse Paho Project co-lead, not because he is unenthusiastic
about MQTT but because he has moved onto other things. I wish to
thank Andy for all his contributions to Paho.
To help me with the workload involved in running the Paho project, I
would like to nominate my colleague James Sutton as co-lead, to
replace Andy.
Although very young (to my aging eyes!) James has shown a sense of
responsibility and ownership for the Paho software with which he has
taken on: the Java and Android clients, plus helping with various
other components when the need arises. He was a significant help in
the move of Paho to Github, writing a script to copy issues, and
helping Roger, myself and other team members with the migration itself.
Paho isn't my only responsibility at work, so having James available
to help with project administration would be really valuable to me,
and to the continuing success of the project. I think the position
will also give James valuable experience in the running of open source
projects, which will benefit him in the future.
If you approve of my nomination of James, please respond with a +1 to
this post.
Thanks!
