I'll confess that Chad is one of my barometers and role models in the Wikimedia movement. In my experience, not only it is useful to know whether Chad agrees or disagrees on something, it is even more useful to learn why and to see how he expresses his opinion. With these qualities, he will be a very useful team member anywhere. As we can see from the ongoing discussions, now is a very good time to add more brain and hands to MediaWiki releases. Congratulations and thank you for your work.

[Wikitech-l] Announcement: Chad Horohoe joins the Release Engineering team
I'm entirely pleased to announce that Chad Horohoe is joining the Wikimedia Foundation's Release Engineering Team. This community needs no introduction to Chad so I thought I’d share a little bit of my personal experience with him. I first worked with Chad on the MediaWiki Core Team; in fact, Chad was one of the people who interviewed me for my initial position at WMF. That's when I got to see first hand Chad's relentlessness and strong (and vocal) commitment to the mission of the WMF. He tells you when you think you’re wrong (in a nice way) but most importantly helps you make things right. In short, he follows up his critique with patches (both literally and figuratively). Chad will be an obvious asset to the Release Engineering team; his experience with Gerrit, his (already deep) knowledge of Phabricator, his understanding of how all the pieces of our system work together (which will help Beta Cluster), and his familiarity (and annoyances) of our deployment tooling. Even though I can’t express through email[0] my excitement that Chad is joining the Release Engineering team please join me in welcoming him to his new role.
