The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache Knox has invited Phil Zampino to become a committer and PMC member and we are pleased to announce that he has accepted.
Phil has contributed a great deal to the 0.14.0 release of Apache Knox. He has collaborated on the design and approach for Service Discovery and Topology Generation framework as detailed in KIP-8. In addition, he has contributed the entire implementation that is currently available. His discussion, review and assistance on the mailing lists and on JIRA has been helpful to others in the community. He will make a great PMC member and I look forward to his continued work on Apache Knox. Being a committer enables easier contribution to the project since there is no need to go via the patch submission process. This should enable better productivity. Being a PMC member enables assistance with the management and to guide the direction of the project.
