Welcome!

After leaving Oracle, I planned to start a new blog. I bought this domain name, opened a Blogger account, and then... Life got in the way. Earlier this week, I started a new job at the Eclipse Foundation. I am now their IoT and Edge Computing Program Manager. What does this entail? Simply working with the rest of the Eclipse IoT Community . There are new projects to incept, new members to recruit, new developers to get in touch with... Part of my job is to get the message out; as such, I will be a frequent sight at industry conferences. I will also start to actually use this blog. I am very excited about this! For the time being, this place is a work in progress. You can expect improved visuals and actual content soon. Is there something you want me to write about? Please let me know!
