I am also at this stage equally certain that this is the way I personally can best help continue to advance the Java and Java EE communities. I will be resuming the community work I have been part of for the better part of a decade in earnest as soon as possible post-Oracle.

They have a very hard job to do and they will continue to need our support, perhaps now more than ever.
I hate mails like this. It's like hearing about a divorce, you don't know whether to happy or sad.
You've always been a great advocate and beacon in the community Reza, and always so helpful.
I can only see this as a good thing for you as you grow in to some place new, and I hope to continue to see your contributions to the community at large in the future.
Best Regards,
Will Hartung
