I've Flown the Coop - CPP Moves to Seller Experience

The longest running active Developers Program team member has left the group...me. This is good for Certified Providers. No, that doesn't mean I'll pester them less. I'm not leaving. We (the program and I) are now part of the Seller Experience team at eBay. This is great news for CPs. Over the last four years, eBay has increasingly embraced third parties, as evidenced by having them teach at eBay Live, build eBay functionality, and train our staff. Being closely aligned with the Seller Experience team allows a greater visibility to CPs and the solutions they offer... both to eBay and our seller community. Great plans are already brewing, more on that when we're ready. The team threw me a "goodbye, but not so long" lunch, here are some photos.
