Introducing the Cassandra Catalyst program!
The Cassandra community is excited to introduce the Cassandra Catalyst
program, a new initiative that aims to recognize individuals who invest in
the growth of the community by enthusiastically sharing their expertise,
encouraging participation, and creating a welcoming environment.
This is the first PMC-led community program of its kind within the Apache
Software Foundation ecosystem and we’re honored to be the pioneer!
What does it mean to be a Cassandra Catalyst?
Catalysts are trustworthy, expert contributors with a passion for
connecting and empowering others with Cassandra knowledge. The individuals
must be able to demonstrate strong knowledge of Cassandra such as
production deployments, educational material, conference talks or other
ways. In broad terms, Catalyst can participate through Contribution and
Promotion.
Who can become a Cassandra Catalyst?
Anyone can nominate an individual to become a Catalyst or apply themselves.
This program applies to existing contributors who have been involved in
Cassandra for years or those who are newcomers to the community.
The program committee includes PMC members who will be reviewing Catalyst
applications on a rolling basis. We’ll be recognizing the first group of
Catalysts on the keynote stage at Cassandra Summit on Dec. 12-13 so apply
early and be recognized for your contributions!

channel.

So excited for this program! It's been a long time coming but wow, what a
great way to recognize individuals advocating for Cassandra in their own
communities.
Let's get out there and start nominating!
