Dear MADlib dev community, The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache MADlib has asked Xiaocheng Tang to become a committer and we are pleased to announce that he has accepted.
Recently Xiaocheng has been working on a completely new version of Support Vector Machines in addition to making various bug fixes and refinements to existing algorithms. 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. Welcome Xiaocheng! Regards, Frank
