I no longer work at MySQL/Sun Microsystems. So if you’ve sent any email to {colin|byte}@mysql.com, or {colin.charles|byte}@sun.com in the last month, they’d silently have gone into /dev/null as I have not had access to my accounts. Don’t hesitate to resend them to byte@bytebot.net if you’d like me to see them.
I’ve enjoyed my journey at MySQL, but it just seems like its time to move on. I haven’t left the MySQL community yet, though. In fact, I expect nothing but more active participation in it.
What’s next? I’m going to split my time between working on MariaDB, at Monty Program Ab, as well as Open Ocean Capital. I’ll work with Open Ocean portfolio companies Web of Trust and MoSync.
