Thanks, Sally.  Hey, Henry! Yea, it's too late for me to ship anything out for Flink Forward as I leave tomorrow for ApacheCon; however, as Sally mentioned, hit me up at the booth near the end of the week and you can take all of the Apache gear that I have left over! ~M From: Sally Khudairi

Hello Henry --thanks so much for your note. Indeed, I *used* to manage the swag process, but this is now handled by Melissa and now comes from the ComDev budget. If you don't need Flink-specific items, you're more than welcome to take whatever you'd like during ApacheCon. No doubt Melissa will be

Yeah, that's pretty much the way I'm looking at it. To me though, just as gravity is what pulls the pendulum back down to its mid-point, for Open Source, it's the "true Open Source" community (or, if you prefer, the "real" one) which acts as gravity, and pulls the pendulum back to 'b'. But if that
