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.
