####Farewell Sam 
@cameralibre - it is sad that you leave. Very sad. But also understandable. You did amazing work in the past 21 months for OSCEdays. OSCEdays would not be what it is without you. Can’t even recall all the contributions you made:
- You structured the forum and gave it the look and feel it has today.
- You transformed the first draft of our Mission Statement into a shiny and well received text, that makes me still proud to be a co-author of although all the stuff I find great about it is not from me but from you.
- You created and updated the OSCEdays city map constantly – one of our most important communication assets.
- You set up and maintained most of our digital infrastructure – the own-cloud, the pad … and You provided us with so much useful documentation on the forum on documentation itself and explained Open Source in many ways to the community. For example in this video.
- You were there in the BoST meetings – online and offline – always with smart and wise advise making sure OSCEdays is on the road to be an open and inclusive endeavour.
- You gave OSCEdays a voice and face and explained it in keynotes and excellent impactful writing
- You played an important part in onboarding the global community and communicating with it always making sure they get the Open Source part.
… and you know, there is more I could add to this list. Much more.
Thank you very much for all the amazing work that was done entirely voluntary.
You are a great person and a fantastic colleague and I am sad to see you leaving OSCEdays BoST for now, but I am also a bit happy to see that you are as smart about your wellbeing as you have been with helping to get OSCEdays on the road. We will miss you in the BoST. And we will keep up the work – building on top of what was created in the past with your help – having more possibilities than before thanks to your work.
