It's strange, it feels this way at Hashicorp, too. I was a little shocked when I was new to see Mitchell occasionally commenting on RFCs, messaging people to ask questions, and updating documentation. If you didn't know his title, you would have thought he was just another engineer. He doesn't elevate himself above others, and Armon is the same.

I honestly think that sort of kindness and respect is actually what allowed Hashicorp to thrive in the open source communities.

Yeah, Armon is a sweetheart too and both of them have put the legwork in to meet and understand the needs of folks like me, and everytime there's a new product I get excited to use it. Their code has literally given me a livelihood for six years and made hard things easy. I've met loads of Hashicorp folks over the years and they're a top bunch.

Having Mitchell comment that my RFC was good was a huge highlight of my tenure there. He deserves all of the success he's earned.
