[VOTE] Matthias Reischenbacher for committer

Hi PMC,

I propose to make Matthias Reischenbacher a committer on the FOP 
project. Matthias is already on the active contributors list and has 
been for a few months. I just did a quick tally of his activity. He's 
submitted 9 patches including one last week, and reported 12 other bugs. 
I think he should be a committer. Here's my +1 vote. Vote to general@ 
please. The vote will conclude in 7 days

Thanks,

Chris



[VOTE RESULT] Matthias Reischenbacher for committer

Posted by Chris Bowditch <bo...@hotmail.com>.
Hi All,

The vote concludes. There were 6 +1s from PMC members and 2 non binding 
+1s from non PMC members. There were no other votes

The motion passes. Congratulations Matthias

Thanks,

CChris

Well... you'll likely lose that Emeritus status as soon as you get back to work (unless 'we're' being particularly lazy)!

Clay

p.s. I hope it's OK that I unilaterally decided to give Andreas 'Emeritus' status! Apologies if I overstepped my bounds!

Hi Andreas,

Welcome back to FOP. Its good to see you contributing again. I'm afraid 
you did lose PMC membership during your few years away, but you remain a 
committer on the FOP project. Although currently you are marked as 
inactive on the website, but its easy enough for us to change that back :-)

Thanks,

Chris

Hi PMC

DISCLAIMER - No presumptions here as to whether this counts. I fully accept that I probably lost my PMC vote due to a long period of inactivity. Apparently, I am still subscribed to general@, so saw this one come by and thought that now was as good a time as any to speak up.

For what it’s worth, Matthias does indeed seem like a valuable addition to the team. Going back, he has actually been contributing for 4+ years now. I had good contacts with him when he collaborated with me on a Bugzilla issue related to the (lack of) support for orphans/widows (= currently FOP-1488 in JIRA). As I recall, at the time he provided me with some very helpful real-life examples that enabled me to refine the initial patches. Unfortunately, I did not get around to committing that patch back then, so the current support for orphans/widows in FOP is still somewhat deficient.

I cannot give any guarantee at this point as to how deeply I will become involved again. Some people very dear to me just recommended that I try and go back to doing things I used to care about, and working on FOP was one of those ‘things’, so here we are… 
I did post an updated patch for FOP-1488 over the weekend, to see for myself how easy/difficult it would be to get into programming and debugging Java again. Almost like riding a bicycle, so far… 
I also re-subscribed to fop-users@, and definitely intend on offering help when I am able to.

In the meantime, if anybody has a particular JIRA entry in mind where you suspect I can offer insights, valuable or otherwise, feel free to let me know, either directly or via fop-dev@.


Later,


Andreas
