The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache CloudStack has asked Pierre-Yves Rischard (@pyr) to become a committer and we are pleased to announce that he has accepted.
Pierre-Yves is a great developer and I hear he was named one of the top 100 french developers. He has contributed several fixes to cloudstack and more recently committed a Kafka listener, he has a big patch pending to remove the awsapi. Being a committer enables easier contribution to the project since there is no need to go via the patch submission process. This should enable better productivity. Being a PMC member enables assistance with the management and to guide the direction of the project. Join me in congratulating pyr and pray that he does not re-write cloudstack in clojure :) -The CloudStack PMC
