[ANNOUNCEMENT] New Committer: Nikolay Antonov

[Dianjin Wang <wa...@gmail.com>]

The Podling Project Management Committee (PPMC) for Apache Cloudberry
has invited Nikolay Antonov to become a committer and we are pleased
to announce that he has accepted.

Over the past few months, Nikolay has been an active and impactful
contributor, particularly in the `cloudberry-pxf` project. He has
worked on aligning the Cloudberry PXF codebase with the archived
Greenplum PXF project, contributed multiple code improvements and
optimizations, and actively participated in community discussions with
constructive ideas and feedback.

Beyond Cloudberry itself, Nikolay has also contributed to the
Cloudberry/PostgreSQL ecosystem by adding Cloudberry support to
`WAL-G` and continuing to improve Cloudberry integration in WAL-G.
This significantly improves backup and recovery capabilities for
Cloudberry users.

Please join us in welcoming Nikolay Antonov to his new role and
responsibility in our project community.

Dianjin Wang
On behalf of the Cloudberry PPMC
