    We have had a couple of leads fall through, so I'm looking again for someone to take over the #California, #Hawaii, and #Nevada region (known as west) for the CC Community Music Awards. Given LA and Vegas, this should be a pretty easy region.

    Please share with anyone you think might be interested. You do not need to live in the region to be the judge for the region. There are still 10+ months in the year, so whoever takes the region is not that far behind.

    • Nobody [LinuxWalt (@lnxw48a1)]
    It's pretty demoralizing to never get any responses from anyone but @lnxw48a1, but I am nothing if not persistent.

    I realize I could interact more and gain more followers and I could post more. Maybe I'll give Mastodon a shot a see if I get more interaction there. I don't think I've joined an instance but maybe I have.

    Anyway...

    My team is looking!

    Requirements (I mean, that's what HR calls them, but not really...):
    Expert level in a number of open source packages.
    Broad and deep familiarity with multiple projects to include #Java and #J2EE, #JBoss, #ActiveMQ, #Drools, #HornetQ, #Hibernate, #Spring, #Linux (focus primary on #CentOS or #Ubuntu), #Apache #HTTPD, Apache #Tomcat, #MySQL, #PostgreSql, #Opensource project and community participation and Production/24x7 experience.
    Database administration; #postgresql/ #mysql/ #mariadb experience very desirable
    Expertise in #Cassandra, #Kafka, and/or #cloudnative applications is a plus.

    Minimum of five years of software development and design or systems administration or level 3-4 technical support experience.
    Technical knowledge, skills and expertise in complex infrastructure, web-based software and enterprise software
    Understanding of software best practices; #SDLC, #SCM and #Agile development principles.
    Excellent written, verbal, and presentation skills

    I am still looking for CC Community Music Awards regional judges for the following regions:

    #Africa
    #CentralAmerica / #Caribbean

    The judges are responsible for picking 5 nominees from their region for artist of the year and do not have to live in the region.

    One of Epic's commandments is not to get acquired. Judy, the founder, put in a lot of legal work to try to make sure those values are upheld even after her death or incapacity.

    And even if that weren't the case, Epic is far enough removed from our core competencies that it wouldn't happen.

    Also, Epic is bigger than us, and as it turns out Epic doesn't also acquire (although there has been a little wiggle room there but they aren't acquiring us).

    it's highly unlikely I will get pulled into any acquisition discussions unless it were an entity in the monitoring space, and even then, doubtful unless Nagios itself
