Personally, I'm happy to see them evolving it with my juices left intact. When we transitioned benthos.dev to https://docs.redpanda.com/redpanda-connect we gained a much larger (and more competent) docs team, but as a consequence had to trim a lot of the old personality. I don't regret the transition but I do take a bit of comfort seeing the WarpStream peeps continue to have fun with it.

It's like shedding an almost intact full body skin and finding comfort in watching colleagues take it bowling, having a great time.

Was hoping you'd appreciate our efforts to retain your original quirky vision. We named the rice ball Geoff as a homage to you (intentionally spelled the silly way). (https://warpstreamlabs.github.io/bento/docs/about)/

FWIW in the UK, Geoff is the usual spelling (from Geoffrey) of the name. Jeff (from Jeffrey) also exists in the UK, but is much rarer, even if it's the most common form in the US.
