I would like to nominate Thomas Wolf.
Since years Thomas is one of the most active developers of Egit and JGit.
We in platform benefit from his work by having faster and easier to use Git tooling.
See https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/technology.egit/who and https://projects.eclipse.org/projects/technology.jgit/who for an overview of his activities in the last three months in EGit and JGit.
AFAIK Thomas contributes in his free time.Thomas seems to have a strong focus on performance and contributed multiple patches to platform which makes the usage of Eclipse much faster. He is also a very community orientated developer, very friendly and already helped with multiple Gerrit reviews in platform. This will help us to grow our Eclipse developer community.
