The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache Avro has invited Oscar Westra van Holthe - Kind to become a committer and we are pleased to announce that he has accepted.
Oscar has done some really solid work on the IDL and JavaCC parts of the Java SDK. We trust his work and think it's of exceptionally high quality. From the start, he has already doing much of the work of a committer, demonstrated by his continuous presence in commenting JIRA, reviewing PRs as well as encouraging and insightful words on the mailing list. As a bonus, in his spare time, Oscar also maintains the IntelliJ plugin for [IDL support](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/15728-apache-avro-idl-schema-support)! Thanks for all your hard work, and welcome! All my best regards, Ryan
