Dear Boosters and Boost Steering Committee,

After roughly 14 years as a Boost Co-Review Wizard, I feel that the time has come for me to step down from the position, and make room for a new face with fresh ideas. It has been my pleasure to serve in this position for this time alongside first Tom Brinkman and now John Phillips.
I look forward to seeing what the next 14+ years of Boost brings!


Sincerely,
Ron Garcia
Boost Co-Review Wizard

Many Boost folk may not be aware, but Ron does a ton of stuff behind the
scenes which no one publicly notices. I can think of at least two
occasions during my time within Boost innards where Ron stepped in to
defuse a problem, or found a solution which wasn't apparently possible.
Boost will be the less for Ron's departure.

Thank you for your service, and best of luck in your future endeavours!

Niall

Ron,

For myself and on behalf of the Boost Steering Committee, thanks very much for both your effort on behalf of the Boost community and the leadership that you've demonstrated.
