Colin is one of the many smart wizards we are lucky to have in FreeBSD land. Well done Colin!

  I can't claim much credit here. I haven't made anything work; all I did was figure out what didn't work and let the right people know.

    Sounds like you worked a certain kind of magic. Looking forward to the upcoming 11.2 AMIs :)

    That is basically what a Project Manager does, and from my perspective it is a lot more valuable then what can been seen form both inside and outside.

      Fair enough. Maybe I should say that I didn't demonstrate any special talents here. What I do could have been done by anyone in the FreeBSD project, but I ended up managing the FreeBSD/EC2 platform by accident and now I'm the obvious person to keep on managing the platform.

        > Special talents Speaking from my (limited) project management experience, I found distributing tasks to the right person is actually a talent in itself. Note: I was actually surprise how many people could not do it when I was trying to transition away into another project.
