I quit.

So after 9 years of challenges and triumphs I have finally decided it is time to step away from Microsoft. I had a blast at Microsoft's Open Source Day 2008 (also told by John Lam) and after it all I felt like I had accomplished a lifetime's worth of achievements. It is now time to seek out new challenges.

I do plan to stay active in the WiX toolset while I search out that next opportunity. Maybe I'll finally make time to work on that book about the WiX toolset that I always wanted to write. Yeah, maybe...

Anyway, to all those people that I worked with but didn't get a chance to say goodbye, don't be strangers. I'll still be in the area and would love to see you. Wish me luck!

In the meantime, keep on coding, you know I am.

 

PS: You can now follow me more on Twitter.

All the best - hope it was SCRUM that was the final straw.

I hope we'll still see WiX v3 go stable without you at MS. 4/1/2008 6:05 PM | David Ruddock

Wow, 9 years. Good Luck. Not that I think you'll need much luck because Wix is brilliant and I'm sure you have more ideas bouncing around inside.

I also look forward to the future of Wix as the rest of the Wix team keep on. 4/2/2008 2:45 AM | Blaine Wheeler
