New PMC member: Leon Finker
The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache Geode
is delighted to announce that Leon Finker has joined the PMC!
Leon has demonstrated sustained, consistently high engagement
with the Apache Geode community across multiple release cycles.
His direct involvement in hands-on testing and release voting, combined
with substantive code contributions, thorough and high-quality reviews,
strong technical diligence, and constructive communication, closely
aligns with the responsibilities and expectations of a PMC member.
These contributions will further strengthen the Apache Geode community,
supporting reliable releases and effective project stewardship.
The PMC - Project Management Committee - manages and guides the
direction of the project, and is responsible for inviting new
committers and PMC members to steward the longevity of the project.
See https://community.apache.org/pmc/responsibilities.html if you're
interested in learning more about the rights and responsibilities of
PMC members.
Please join us in welcoming Leon Finker to their new role in our
Apache Geode project!
Best regards,
Jinwoo Hwang

in recent history, with respect to your generosity in testing release
candidates. This is well-deserved indeed.
