Election for Nico Prediger as Committer on Eclipse Graphical Editing Framework (GEF)

Role Type
Criteria

I am happy to nominate Nico Prediger to be elected as a Committer for the Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) project at Eclipse.

Nico is already doing a great job in the context of the Xtext project w.r.t. release engineering, and he did most of the hard work during the JIRO migration.

I asked Nico if he would be willing to take the same responsibility for the GEF project, and, fortunately, he agreed :-)

Nico and I have a gentlemen's agreement that Nico would take care of release engineering, not the framework source code.

I have full confidence in Nico and I believe that he is perfectly capable of 1) supporting the JIRO migration for GEF, and 2) improving our releng processes.

I ask all of you to vote and hope of course for your support.

Voter Vote Comments
Matthias Wienand +1 +1 implied by nomination
Alexander Nyssen +1 Thanks for opting in, Nico!
Tamas Miklossy +1 Welcome Nico!
Fabian Steeg +1 Thanks for helping Nico!
Zoltan Ujhelyi +1 As far as I know the EDP, we should first have some contributions presented and only then approve Nico as a committer. However, considering Nico is already familiar with similar projects (Xtext), and having someone familiar with JIRO processes is really helpful, I don't want to vote against Nico. So, welcome.
Zoey Winter +1 Hi :) ...thanks and welcome from me, too.
