So fellow committers, please respond with a +1 (or
-1) by end of day Monday, September 16, 2013.
Sam has been a contributor since the early days of
the Lyo project and become a committer back in
January 2012 [2]. Ohloh shows him as being one of
the most active in the project [3].
Some of the contributions that Sam has done (not a
complete list by far) that show he has proven he
warrants the nomination to project lead are:
- improvements of the daily builds to provide more
frequent and valuable outputs
- publication of key assets to public Maven
repository
- improvements in overall source code project
structure to assist with getting started and
navigation
- contribution of Linked Data Platform reference
implementation
- assisting many contributors with ensuring their
commits make it through cleanly
- assisting many consumers overcoming obstacles
for successful adoption.
- and much more
Ohloh and Eclipse tools show activity of members,
which you'll see how active Sam is across wiki
contributions, mailing list, bugzilla and git.
By being becoming project lead, this will enable
Sam to function in full capacity with certain
functions in Eclipse that require project lead
access for various project maintenance and release
management. This will help greatly with the
upcoming release of Lyo 2.0 and further release
development.
