Dear TOC friends, I wanted to let you know that, as I reach the end of my first term, I won't be presenting myself for reelection. Instead I have nominated Justin Cormack as a candidate to replace me.

Not only is Justin a better fit than me for this role, I think he would be a fantastic addition to the TOC, and would be an incredible resource for the CNCF projects. He is an open-source veteran, an active contributor to several CNCF projects, and an endless source of knowledge, wisdom, and empathy. He is a humble guy, which is why I'm going the extra mile in pointing out his accomplishments - I know he won't be comfortable doing it himself.

There are more details on Justin's qualifications in the nomination spreadsheet. I encourage you to take a look and ask any follow-up questions you may have. I think the TOC would be lucky to have him.

I want to thank my fellow TOC members for inviting me to be part of the CNCF experiment. This kind of governance work is not easy, and rarely appreciated, but it's important, and you're doing it well.  A special thank you to Alexis and Chris, for doing so much of the heavy lifting.

All the best,
Solomon
