+
+We are excited to announce that Leonid Borchuk (GitHub ID: leborchuk) has been
elected as a member of the Podling Project Management Committee (PPMC) for
Apache Cloudberry! 🎉
+
+<!-- truncate -->
+
+The PPMC has voted to invite Leonid Borchuk to join as a PPMC member, and we
are delighted that he has accepted this important role.
+
+Since joining the Apache Cloudberry project, Leonid has been an active and
highly engaged contributor. Beyond his solid technical contributions—including
helping cherry-pick changes from Greenplum, reviewing PRs, contributing to
CI/CD improvements, and more—he has demonstrated a strong commitment to the
community and overall project development.
+
+## Community Leadership and Contributions
+
+What sets Leonid apart is his proactive involvement in community-facing
responsibilities that go beyond code contributions:
+
+- **Incubation Reporting**: Proactively volunteered to draft the Cloudberry
Incubation Report, helping the project maintain transparency and accountability
with the Apache Incubator
+- **Community Meetings**: Initiated and co-organized the Cloudberry bi-weekly
community meetings, and has served as a rotating host, fostering regular
communication and collaboration
+- **Code Review and Mentorship**: Actively reviews pull requests and engages
with contributors through constructive feedback, helping maintain code quality
and supporting other contributors
+- **Strategic Planning**: Contributed ideas and discussions around the project
roadmap and future directions, demonstrating a vision for the project's growth
+
+These contributions demonstrate not only technical capability, but also a
clear sense of responsibility and growing involvement in the project's
community and governance.
+
+## What is a PPMC Member?
+
+The Podling Project Management Committee (PPMC) is responsible for the
oversight and direction of a podling project during its incubation at the
Apache Software Foundation. PPMC members help build a healthy and sustainable
community, guide the project's development under ASF principles, and work
toward graduation as a top-level Apache project.
+
+## Looking Forward
+
+Leonid's consistent contributions, active participation, and demonstrated
leadership make him a strong addition to the PPMC. We are confident that he
will continue to help us build a thriving, inclusive, and sustainable community
for Apache Cloudberry.
+
+Please join us in congratulating Leonid Borchuk on this well-deserved
recognition and welcoming him to the PPMC!
