Hello all. I wanted to send out a note to say goodbye to the folks in JaxLUG. I'll be leaving the area in a few weeks to attend a PhD program in computer science at Syracuse University in Syracuse, NY. My area of research will be in networking theory and distributed systems. Since my professional experience and academic research has been in applied embedded systems and OS theory, I am hoping this will be a good subject domain for me to continue researching and publishing in. I will also be teaching undergraduate coursework in networking and OS theory, and I am looking forward to helping the next generation of computer science students find out how much fun this kind of work can be. Or I might just be really frustrated with how the kids don't care about it all that much. It could go either way, I suppose. I've been on the mailing list with the LUG for a number of years, though I have only attended meetings on the four occasions that I made presentations to the LUG. I've interacted with a number of LUG members via offlist mails many times, and it has been a pleasure bouncing ideas back and forth, helping with technical issues, and even hiring and working professionally with a few of you. You're a good group of technical-minded folks, and I wish you all the best in the future. I will continue to lurk on the mailing list, since I enjoy reading about the hobby projects and odd problems that we discuss every now and then. So, I guess I am not going to be "gone" per se, since I will still be keeping an ear out for whatever might be happening with the LUG. Take care, everyone. Keep on learning and tinkering, and make the most out of all that available software out there. I wish a fraction of the source code, documentation, and open coursework available today was available 20 years ago!
