As someone watching from the sidelines, it is nice to see the Cython
team grow, especially with such a talented and committed contributor.

Hi everyone,
with the release of the first 3.0 alpha that supports Python 3.11
(aptly named "alpha 11"), I'm happy to announce that David Woods has
been promoted to a Cython core developer.
David has shown an extraordinary commitment and dedication over the
last years. His first merged commits were already back in 2015, mostly
related to the C++ support. But within the last two years, he
voluntarily took over more and more responsibility for bugs and issues
and developed several major new features for the project. This
includes the Walrus operator (PEP 572), cdef dataclasses (modelled
after PEP 557), internal "std::move()" usage in C++ mode or support
for Unicode identifiers and module names, all of which form a major
part of the 3.0 feature set. David has more than deserved a place in
the circle of present and prior core devs.
David, thank you for your impressive work on Cython,
and welcome to the core team!
Stefan
