Hi,
It was not an easy decision and I feel sad for having to take it, but I decided to resign from the CentOS project.
I hope the team can fix the project's leadership, communication and transparancy issues (even within the team), because each is very important for the health of the CentOS community. And while I will be no longer part of the team, I still feel deeply involved as a user and advocate.
My resignation feels also like a personal failure because I failed to change those things that I still believe to be important. It's sad day if you have to conclude that resigning is the best option and this will take some time to heal.
Good luck with the project !

A hard decision for you, I am sure, and sad from where I sit, both for losing you, and for having asked you to consider joining the project.
Perhaps you should consider simply dialling back for a bit, and letting others take lead to 'pull the wagon'.
Thank you for your service the last few years here. I know we'll still see you about. ;)
