Engaging with the CFEngine community at Scale 12x

My name is Jonathan Thorpe and I recently joined CFEngine to work with the CFEngine community. I’ve spent the past 15 years or so working in several different roles ranging from development, build maintenance, management and finally onto community and customer facing roles.

When I got the opportunity to work with the CFEngine community it was a very easy decision to join CFEngine. While I’ve only been on the job for a week I’ve had an amazing experience so far. Scale was my first show with CFEngine and I came back extremely energized and enthusiastic about the CFEngine community in SoCal.

By the end of Scale I’d heard about many interesting use cases, been asked about doing meetups and other community events and came back armed with lots of suggestions for how to enhance CFEngine and make it more accessible for users.

We’re already working on meetups in the LA area and surrounding counties and I’ll be reaching out to community members around the globe to bring meetups and other CFEngine related events to you.

We’ll be announcing upcoming events on cfengine.com, twitter. Please follow @CFEngine and @jonathan_thorpe to get the latest updates on what we are doing in the CFEngine community.

If you have community events or other suggestions please send them to jonathan.thorpe@cfengine.com or tweet your ideas to us.
