The Project Management Committee (PMC) of Apache StormCrawler is delighted to share that Dávid has been invited to join as a committer — and we’re even more pleased to announce that he has accepted. When I first began contributing and was later invited to become a committer on several ASF projects, Jean-Louis and David B. (in Apache TomEE) shared a wonderful message with me. It was inspired by the proverb, “It takes a village to raise a child.” Their words captured beautifully what open source is all about. I can’t hope to match their phrasing, but I truly share the sentiment for you, Dávid. Just as it takes a village to raise a child, it takes a community to nurture and grow an open source project. Half of that effort is the contributor’s dedication, and the other half is the community’s responsibility to create the space and support needed for success. So, in my simple but heartfelt “germenglish,” I’ll say this: I am very proud to be making this announcement on behalf of the Apache StormCrawler PMC. Your contributions — from code and documentation to examples and reviews — embody the Apache Way. We are grateful you accepted the invitation. As a committer, you’ll now be able to contribute more seamlessly, without needing to go through the patch submission process, which should boost productivity.. Once again, congratulations Dávid — and thank you for everything you’ve already given to the community. Let's join together in extending a warm welcome and a thank you to him. Gruß Richard
