Hello OFA Community,

As the deadline passed for the call for nominations, I did not receive any additional nominees. Therefore, Uma Parepalli will assume the role of OFA NVMe Windows Chair. Please join me in welcoming Uma to his new role.

Over the next couple of weeks, I will work with Uma in transitioning the chair role from myself to him. If you have any outstanding issues, new questions, or just any general comments... please feel free to ask.

I've enjoyed my time as part of this community and moving forward, I will continue to observe and be involved for consultation. I would like to thank all the OFA members who have helped make the OFA driver a successful open source Windows NVMe driver!

Best Wishes!
Ray Robles

Happy new year OFA community family!

As we closed out the end of 2016, we finally released our 1.5 revision of the OFA driver. This was a great achievement and I was very happy to be a part of it. As we look forward to 2017 and beyond, we are in a good position to keep providing a robust, performant, and reliable Windows NVMe reference driver.

With that in mind, I believe it is time for me to step down as acting chair of the OFA NVMe Windows community. I've been in the chair position for about two years... and this was my second stint. As with the original intent, the chair/maintainer position was designed to rotate between companies in much the same way the NVMe promoters group works.

As I prepare to step down, I have talked to a potential candidates for replacement. As always, I believe the OFA community should nominate and vote on its new chair. In that spirit, I would like to nominate Uma Parepalli. Uma has been a strong advocate of the OFA NVMe Windows driver (and all open source NVMe drivers) and has led technical talks in previous Flash Memory Summits. I've personally spoken to Uma and I believe he would make a great chair.

At this time, I would like to call for any other nominations for the OFA NVMe Windows chair. Please submit any nominations before Feb. 10th, 2017... at which point, I will call for a vote.

Thanks...
Ray
