Dear community,
In my last mail on this list I already hided the message that I left CERT.at a short while ago and I was already asked what that means for the IntelMQ project.
First of all: Don't panic! IntelMQ is and has always been a community project, with contributors from multiple teams, countries and continents[0]. In every release announcement I say thank you to the community for all the contributions and I really mean it. IntelMQ would never be that feature-rich without your involvement. All of us are part of this project, and joining our forces makes us strong.
IntelMQ made various big steps in the last 7 years. It all started with Tomás Lima and Aaron Kaplan. The architecture was so robust, that it didn't change since then. I joined one year later and since then I almost memorized every line of code. In the last years I lost that ability as more and more code was coming for contributors, who are also maintaining code. And that's the essence: With IntelMQ growing, it's important to share the maintenance work.
The IntelMQ project is looking for your contributions, including: - fixing open bugs[0] - reviewing open pull requests[1] - discussing and deciding when to make releases - testing before we do releases - documentation - and much more ;)
IntelMQ is ready for the next evolutional leap forward and you are part of it!
best regards Sebastian
