Dear All,=20

We hope you are all doing well during these extremely trying times.=20

We have some positive news. Sid and I wanted to inform you that ReSpec =
has been granted a Mozilla Open Source Support (MOSS) Award [1]. The =
award will pay Sid a stipend to work on ReSpec full time for the next 3 =
months.=20

During the duration of the award, I will be stepping down as core =
maintainer of ReSpec, effective immediately, to focus on my W3C Chairing =
and Editorial responsibilities.=20

I'm really excited to hand the reins to Sid to see where he takes the =
project. Sid will be working hard to bring you new features, fix long =
standing bugs, and improve documentation - making editing specs a little =
easier and enjoyable.

Please join me in congratulating Sid on receiving this award - It's an =
acknowledgement of the fantastic work Sid has done over the last ~2 =
years supporting ReSpec - mostly in his spare time!

If you and member company would like to continue to support the =
development of ReSpec, we'd like to encourage you to make a donation to =
our open source collective - any little bit helps:
