Tending to the community is required, else you risk alienating your own users. I aim to use my experiences from a variety of open-source projects and communities to make sure the JBoss community is one of which I’m proud to be a member.</blockquote><p>Congrats Bob. Sounds like a great new job. This mean you&#39;ll be coming to Raleigh more often?</p>
