Roland is an active member of the OpenBSW community. His biggest contribution so far is a PR to port OpenBSW to the ETL, which touches a huge amount of files (https://github.com/eclipse-openbsw/openbsw/pull/58). Roland adapted all existing OpenBSW code to ETL and updated the PR for a long time, while the main branch was evolving and the decision to accept the PR was still pending.
In general he takes care of further supporting his changes, e.g. by updating the ETL to new upstream releases (https://github.com/eclipse-openbsw/openbsw/pull/142).
Other contributions by him are e.g.
* Add support for C++20 & C++23, https://github.com/eclipse-openbsw/openbsw/pull/8 & https://github.com/eclipse-openbsw/openbsw/pull/94
* Include new concepts for include guards, https://github.com/eclipse-openbsw/openbsw/pull/84
* Various fixes, e.g., https://github.com/eclipse-openbsw/openbsw/pull/62, https://github.com/eclipse-openbsw/openbsw/pull/63
He also submits improvements ideas, new feature requests as well as bug reports (https://github.com/eclipse-openbsw/openbsw/issues?q=is%3Aissue%20author…) and takes part in GitHub discussions and OpenBSW meetings.
We really think that the committer role for Roland is more then well deserved. He puts a lot of effort into the project, is a super collaborative and constructive peer in discussions and most importantly has already improved OpenBSW significantly. We are looking forward to many more contributions and fruitful discussions.
