Looks like my emails from amazon.de are getting filtered (are they stuck in a moderation queue?), so sorry for the late replies everyone.
First of all thanks to everyone for inviting me as a committer. Great to be working on an interesting project. Some quick background about me: I've been a developer for 10 years, currently working at Amazon full time on a machine translation project involving Joshua. I'm originally from Western Canada (now living in Berlin) so I can help point people to good pubs for ApacheCon. -Kellen
