Thanks Jarek!  Thank you for all the work you=E2=80=99ve done as our PMC =
chair!

I=E2=80=99m very excited to be the next PMC chair.  I=E2=80=99ve got =
some big shoes to fill.

One of the things that I=E2=80=99d like to discuss is the possibility of =
a complete re-write of Geronimo.  A nice fresh start at implementing the =
JEE specs.  Maybe we could even have multiple implementations as people =
could try out new ideas.


Regards,
Alan
