Election for Malte Hellmeier as Committer on Eclipse Tractus-X

Nominee
Role Type
Criteria

Malte Hellmeier is part of Catena-X since the very first day. He is an active member, software engineer, and architect of the Traceability team and one of the developers from the PURIS demonstrator. Malte has been participating in the regular DevSecOps Office Hours actively since half a year now. He has got open-source experience in various projects, both within and outside of Eclipse, including commits and pull requests already merged into Eclipse Tractus-X.

His commits are very structured, always in the "Conventional Commits" format, and signed with GPG keys. One example:
- https://github.com/catenax-ng/tx-puris-backend/commit/17594e473a0ba8a3c…

He also made two initial contributions and was one of the first to accompany the new process in the Eclipse GitLab. Therefore, he has followed the process from the beginning (repository request in the Help Desk) until the final check with the vet-project template of the Eclipse Foundation. Links of the initial contributions:
- https://github.com/catenax-ng/tx-puris-backend/commit/71a8b10b80ed22ffa…
- https://github.com/catenax-ng/tx-puris-frontend/commit/e0ca2932797d17ea…

Malte is familiar with Eclipse-related tools like the dash tool for IP checks and showed it's usage in dependency updates. This includes general dependency checks and the ones not handled automatically by the dash tool (like icons). Examples:
- https://github.com/eclipse-tractusx/puris-backend/pull/2/commits/2cc454…
- https://github.com/eclipse-tractusx/puris-frontend/commit/f14dbd321ab08…

His pull requests (PRs) are always described with details, and his workflow is as desired (e.g., working in branches in catenax-ng, open pull requests to eclipse-tractusx etc.). He is able to see links between PRs and discuss & solve requested changes. Several examples (there are more pull requests available, this is just a selection):
- https://github.com/eclipse-tractusx/puris-frontend/pull/3
- https://github.com/eclipse-tractusx/puris-frontend/pull/4
- https://github.com/catenax-ng/eclipse-tractusx.github.io/pull/1
- https://github.com/eclipse-tractusx/puris-backend/pull/6 (Reviewed & included IP check)
- https://github.com/eclipse-tractusx/puris-backend/pull/10
- https://github.com/eclipse-tractusx/puris-backend/pull/9

He is further familiar with the current project documentation and works on the new KIT approach:
- https://github.com/catenax-ng/eclipse-tractusx.github.io/commit/7f25cbb…

I am happy to be able to nominate Malte Hellmeier as a Committer on Eclipse Tractus-X!
