Election for Jeff Johnston as Committer on Eclipse JDT (Java development tools)

Nominee
Role Type
Criteria

I'd like to nominate Jeff Johnston as committer on the eclipse.jdt project.

Jeff is a committer on Linux Tools and CDT [1]. Initially he started off refactoring parts of JDT UI that weren't strictly dependent on UI so that that they could be consumed by other projects (specifically JDT-LS). More recently he has started addressing various bugs in the JDT queue. I think he would make a great addition to the team.

I've compiled a list of his contributions (excluding the refactoring work). His full list of contributions can be seen on Gerrit [2].
