I'm not highly involved in this project but I thought I'd make a comment
from my brief experience. Daniel to me seems to be a heavy duty lifter. I
was surprised at how fast he got features and code committed. In addition I
think he has a clear vision for the project and its roadmap. He is open to
ideas and cares about the project and wants to build a community. To me
this makes him a good candidate.

I am not the most active here so I apologize if my comments are out of
place. Just my 2 cents.

Cheers,

Taher Alkhateeb

Since it's a voluntarily position, let's see who wants that
responsibility. Guys, anyone wants to be a PMC chair if the project
graduates?
