Also, something I forgot to include in my last post - it's not clear to me if Zulu is stepping down from just his position, or his job altogether. Does anyone know?

I like the implications of Gallentians being punched in the face by walking up to a Minmatar as they so freely use another person's culture as a fad.

You know, considering they've actually been promising development to it in several of the crucible dev blogs.  8)

Quote from: Seleene
Okay, well, putting a non-Icelander in charge of EVE is a first and, IMO, a sign of how serious they are taking the situation. Anyone that's followed this situation closely will understand what that means. For those that don't, the simplest explanation is that Jon is not an 'inner circle Viking brosef'. Beyond that, Jon has the real world management background (several years at IBM) along with other real world experience that makes him ideal for the job. I wish I'd taken actual notes on his past experience but I'm not sure printing them here would be kosher anyway. Suffice to say, the dude is super smart and does not have blinders on with regard to what he's being tasked with. Having worked at places other than CCP is a big plus. He's not being put into the position before he's ready (as it's debatable others may have been).

I had a chance to talk to him for a couple hours pretty much one on one at dinner one night and, in the process of comparing notes about working at CCP and going down memory lane a bit, got the full story of how he came to CCP and ended up in the Senior Producer position. It filled in a lot of blanks quite well but, most importantly, was how in the CSM's session with Hilmar, he went out of his way a couple times to emphasize how, "That's Jon's job." or, "Jon makes those calls." There has been a very perceptible shift in how the organization is being changed and Jon is at the center of it all.

Lastly, Jon plays EVE. He has played at all levels and even tho none of us could get out of him where he plays now, it was pretty obvious that he isn't in hi-sec mining with his Hulk Army. Some of the questions he asked and points he made set a lot of us at ease in the sense that Jon is a Space Bro.

Hopefully that answers a bit more on this.  :)
