Open APIs

I am a fairly regular contributor to the Engage community, especially the Open API subgroup. So I thought it only fair to bring to your attention that I am leaving Amdocs next week under an early retirement scheme.

I don't yet know if and when I will be able to continue contributing here - it depends on many factors.

I'm taking the opportunity to thank everyone who has raised questions, reported issues, or joined in discussions. It was an honor to have been able to help popularise the TMF Open API project. I do hope that other people will continue to provide answers and discussions, thus helping to make the Open API into a standard for the benefit of the industry as a whole.

Hello Jonathan

I hope you have a happy retirement and hopefully this is not the end of your contributions to the forum.

I know you have helped many people in this group and that everyone including me are very grateful for all that you have done to promote and support our endeavours in adopting these APIs.

Hi Jonathan,

I congratulate you with your early, and well deserved, retirement.

At the same time this is a sad event for the community to loose such an important contributor. I really liked the discussions we occassionally had. I hope we will see you here occasionally.

Regards

Thank you Jonathan for these years discussing product catalogue with me.

Your expertise, help and altruism will be dearly missed.

People need to realise and appreciate that it takes time to help (read your questions, make some research, mockups stuffs, write an answer). Contributors are not paid to participate to TMF Engage, they often do this on their personal times.

Have a great new life in retirement
