Hi all, Since our last announcement in May, we have added many more committers and a new PMC member. Some of these may have been in the monthly newsletter or mentioned elsewhere, but I wanted to be sure to have a loud announcement on the list directly.
Please join me in belatedly welcoming... New PMC member: Thomas Weise - Author of the ApexRunner, the first additional runner after Beam began incubation. - Recently heavily involved in Python-on-Flink efforts. - Outside his contributions to Beam, Thomas is PMC chair for Apache Apex. New committers: - Charles Chen, longtime contributor to Python SDK, Python direct runner, state & timers - Łukasz Gajowy, testing infrastructure, benchmarks, build system improvements - Anton Kedin, contributor to SQL and schemas, helper on StackOverflow - Andrew Pilloud, contributor to SQL, very active on dev@, infra and release help - Tim Robertson, contributor to many IOs, major code health work - Alexey Romanenko, contributor to many IOs, Nexmark benchmarks - Henning Rohde, contributor to Go SDK, incl. ip fun, and portability protos and design - Scott Wegner, one of our longest contributors, major infra improvements And while I've noted some areas of contribution for each, most importantly everyone on this list is a valued member of the Beam community that the PMC trusts with the responsibilities of a Beam committer [1]. A big thanks to all for their contributions. Kenn [1] https://beam.apache.org/contribute/become-a-committer/#an-apache-beam-committer
