Good bye, Oracle...

Most of my current and former colleagues already know this, others who care could probably note my unusually low activity at http://bugs.mysql.com, but still formal announcement is needed. August 31, 2012 was my last working day at MySQL Support team in Oracle. I've spent great 7+ years in MySQL Support, but I think that Oracle is no longer the best place for me to work at. It's time to pass Redwood Shores (I had never been there anyway).

Now I am support engineer at Percona. This is what may happen when you read http://www.mysqlperformanceblog.com/ too often and even quote it to customers, no matter if they are MySQL AB, Sun or Oracle customers.

I hope with all these new duties, procedures and events I'll still be able to contribute something useful to MySQL community bug reports, both at http://bugs.mysql.com and at lp:percona-server.
