Election for ALSHAMA M S as Committer on Eclipse PDE

Alshama has made an impact on Eclipse PDE project. It is my pleasure to nominate her as an Eclipse PDE committer. Alshama has been active in the project since the beginning of the year, and has been consistently contributing quality code. She has picked up and resolved many outstanding issues reported in the repo, improving the overall usability of PDE component, many of those being cool features. She has also been the editor of New and Noteworthy content that gets published into the online Eclipse documentation. I am looking forward to seeing Alshama as a prolific contributor in PDE.
