technology.omr Committers,
This automatically generated message signals that Daryl Maier has nominated
Filip Jeremic as a Committer on the technology.omr project. The reason
given is as follows:

Filip Jeremic is the Z architecture code generator and performance lead
within IBM for projects based on Eclipse OMR.  The Z architecture-specific
compiler technology comprises nearly 100 kLOC in the Eclipse OMR project
(nearly 20% of the total compiler technology).  Filip provides deep
technical knowledge of the Z architecture, Z performance characteristics,
and design and implementation details of the Z code generator and
supporting optimizations in the Eclipse OMR compiler.  He brings a wealth
of experience beyond Z in areas important to Eclipse OMR such as general
code generator design (e.g., register assignment, binary encoding, peephole
optimizations), dynamic compiler technologies (e.g., self-modifying code
and recompilation), Testarossa architectural knowledge, and high-level
optimizations (e.g., inlining and global register assignment).  The Eclipse
OMR project would benefit from a committer with this depth of compiler
experience.

Filip is an active contributor to the Eclipse OMR project in many ways.  He
has contributed over 60 pull requests (and over 80 commits) to the project,
and has repeatedly demonstrated thoroughness in his implementation and
quality of those commits.  He has also participated in the review of over
100 pull requests from other developers and provided input to over 50
issues.  When his expertise is explicitly sought by other committers or
developers for a code review, his reviews are timely and thorough.  Often,
such a request is not needed as Filip is proactive in providing quality
reviews for pull requests both within and beyond his immediate areas of
expertise.  His comments always reflect respect for contributors and
professionalism.

An important aspect of all of Filip's contributions are their steadfast
alignment with the goals of the Eclipse OMR project and the betterment of
the technology.  For example, he strongly encourages the contribution of
quality documentation with commits where it is appropriate.  He is also
mindful of maintaining high code quality and is a demonstrated proponent of
leveraging Tril to create compiler unit tests to supplement a pull request
where possible.  Filip understands the language-agnostic philosophy of the
Eclipse OMR project and has challenged the contribution of code in
violation of that principle.  He has also repeatedly demonstrated and
encouraged the refactoring of compiler code to realize that goal.

I believe Filip is an excellent candidate to become a committer on the
Eclipse OMR project.


The vote is being held via the MyFoundation portal: voters *must* use the
portal for the votes to be properly recorded.  The voting will continue
until either all 7 existing Committers have voted or until they have been
given enough time to vote, even if they do not do so (defined as at least
one week). Filip Jeremic must receive at least three +1s and no -1s for a
successful election.

Eligible Committers must cast their votes through their My Foundation
portal page (do NOT just reply to this email; your vote will not be
correctly recorded unless you use the portal):

The project Committers eligible to vote are:

    John Duimovich
    Charlie Gracie
    Angela Lin
    Daryl Maier
    Mark Stoodley
    Vijay Sundaresan
    Andrew Young

*NOTE*: Successful elections are left open for a maximum of 120 days to
allow for processing of paperwork.  After that time the election will be
expired, regardless of its current status.  Should papework processing on
the part of the candidate take more time than allowed, a new election will
have to be held.
