I just saw that my colleague Hubert Le Van Gong has been elected to replace Pat Patterson as the OpenSSO Community Lead.

It is sad to see Pat leaving Sun. Pat has been a source of inspiration in my role as OpenDS Community Manager and we’ve been collaborating in numerous occasions.

Hubert definitely has the skills and the experience to lead the OpenSSO community and oversee all Sun Identity related open source projects. Another good thing is that Hubert and I are both working out of the Grenoble Engineering Center, in France. So I’m expecting some tighter collaborations between the projects and the communities.

Welcome on the community leadership side, Hubert !
