I’ve been chapter lead of NNUG Bergen for 4,5 years now, together with a great group of people. I think we have accomplished a great deal. We’ve managed to attract some great developers in the local community to attend and participate in our meetings and discussions, as well as local, national and international speakers doing presentations and being social. When I now step down, it does not mean things are slow and boring. On the contrary, I’m confident NNUG Bergen will still progress towards an even greater community. For me personally I have too much going on and something needs to be sacrificed – and I believe NNUG Bergen will benefit from a change of “leadership”.

For your information the current NNUG Bergen board consist of: John St. Clair, Torbjørn Marø, Øyvind Fanebust and Thomas Pedersen – a great representation of the .NET community in Bergen!

We have yet to announce who’s taking over after me, but we have many possible candidates, and I’m sure that person will continue the success of NNUG Bergen.

I will still be involved in the community though, attend meetings, present (if they allow me) and I will still keep the chairman role of NNUG National. Hopefully now get some more time to focus on tasks related to some of the National activities. Did anyone say a new website would be in order? Smile That’s one of the things we’re going to sort out going forward.

If you know somebody that you think should be part of the board in NNUG Bergen or a candidate for chapter lead, drop me an email and I’ll make sure to forward it to the others.

See you at NNUG!

Hey Jon Arild,

Hehe just now that I was about to start nagging you about inviting me to come and speak ;-)

That is a shame to hear, I know you have done a HUGE amount for the Bergen progressive .Net community and as such that will surely be missed. I also do understand that priorities need to be set so good luck with the other things in your live that you suddenly get a bit more time for :-)

So I just have to say "Good on you", its always good to see someone choose for themselves.

Cheers,

-Mark

Btw, only thing that is localized is the "remember me" check-box which is in Dutch, while I write this comment in Goteborg, and Google still thinks I am in Bergen ...

ok, it freezes google chrome (no plugins) on windows 7 as well. easy workaround: do not go from a search result to this page.
