Thanks Chris! I'm extremely excited and honored to join the ranks of the IPMC. I will do my best to measure up to the high standard that the project has been known for. As for myself, I'm a software engineer who's been lucky enough to be involved in open source projects for pretty much all of my career. I grew up with UNIX (later Plan9) and for 11 years I was a happy hacker at Sun microsystems working on quite a few different projects (C++ compilers, development tools, DTrace tools, cloud storage -- you name it!). Nowadays, I like my software extreme -- it either has to be huge and intimidating (like Hadoop) or small and beautiful (like Lua). And if you believe this divide can be bridged then we'd love to see you in Apache Bigtop ;-) I'm originally from St.Petersburg, Russia but these days you can find me on the other side of the globe in Silicon Valley (I'm currently employed by Cloudera Inc) mulling about at various Meetups and Board game events. Thanks, Roman. P.S. And the most crucial bit of info: I use vim, 4 space tabs and mutt. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
