The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache Mahout has asked Tommy Naugle to become a committer and we are pleased to announce that he has accepted.
He has a background in data science and analytics, and has already contributed to web site and documentation fixes as well as to the new QuMat quantum computing framework. Being a committer allows many contributors to contribute more autonomously. For developers, it makes it easier to submit changes and eliminates the need to have contributions reviewed via the patch submission process. Whether contributions are development-related or otherwise, it is a recognition of a contributor's participation in the project and commitment to the project and the Apache Way. Please join me in congratulating Tommy! Andrew Musselman on behalf of the Mahout PMC
