I have not seen Jason for > 3 months now. Did he leave because of the SourceForge acquisition?

Howdy,

Good question! The acquisition has much to do my absence, but in the opposite way than you speculate.

I am now managing the software engineering teams for sourcegforge.net, ohloh & slashdot. I've been ramping up on the job: meeting the team, learning the process & technologies.

An important part of my work is also to think of where all these websites should be going. I'm happy to share my thoughts on this - but I don't want to bore you ;-).

In short: I apologize for my absence. I plan to open a more direct communication channel soon. I'll make an announcement here when I do.

Meanwhile, if you (or anyone) would like to chat about where SourceForge should be heading - or perhaps even interested in joining our team, email/jabber me at jason@corp.sourceforge.com.

Jason, are you still with Geek.net (http://www.geek.net)? fka SourceForge? They just announced a name change in the past hour. Sounds exciting but I hope you are still a key player on the sourceforge.net side. That would be critical. Thanks, you're a class act.
