Greetings Architecture Council.
I'd like to nominate Bernd Kolb to the Architecture Council.
That Bernd is not already a member may come as a bit of a shock to
some of you. He had previously been a member of the Architecture
Council as the representative for a member company. When Bernd
changed employers, that relationship was also terminated and he
was unceremoniously turfed from our ranks.
If you've been involved in the Eclipse community for any
significant amount of time, you've likely heard of Bernd.
He was the programme committee chair for EclipseCon Europe 2011, a
current committer on the Skalli project, and designated project
lead for the proposed Mbeddr project [1] (currently waiting on
trademark approval before a creation review). He is a past
committer on numerous Eclipse projects, including Xtext, Xpand,
and MWE; and a past project lead for EMF Query, and EMF
Transaction.
Amusingly, he is also already one of our more active mentors,
engaged with Koneki, Skalli, and Tycho (he is a past mentor for
Jubula). While this may highlight a bit of dysfunction in our
process--I could argue that the mentoring roles should have been
retired and that the mentor should have been replaced, or that the
member company representation should have been turned into an
appointment--I believe that it more importantly highlights the
suitability of Bernd in this role.
Please register your vote.
Thanks,
Wayne
