I few minutes ago Nolan and I sent the following message to our colleagues at Appcelerator:

Dear Appcelerator Employees,

Nolan and I wanted to send a personal note to say that the time has come for us to move on to our next entrepreneurial adventure.

We started Appcelerator just over 10 years ago this past month, and what an amazing journey it’s been. All of us here have made so many memories and friendships — and created a lasting legacy with our innovations. Our products have been used by over a half a billion people worldwide and by almost 1 million developers. We couldn’t be more proud. We’re forever grateful to you and all the past team members and investors that joined this amazing journey.

Appcelerator is in great hands with Axway. I’m thankful for everyone’s patience and assistance as we made the transition from a startup to being part of a larger, established public company. I want especially to thank Jean-Marc Lazzari and Scott Hausman. Their long-term vision and commitment to the transformation of Axway drove the strategic acquisition of Appcelerator. I also want to thank our Axway colleagues, who’ve made us feel welcome from day one.

While Nolan and I are departing officially, we’ll continue to remain the biggest advocates and fans of both Appcelerator and Axway. We remain open to help each and everyone one of you personally. You can always find us at at jhaynie@gmail.com and nolan11169@yahoo.com.

So long and thanks for all the fish.

Codestrong!
