Thanks Jingsong! It is a great honor to join the Paimon PMC. Since I started contributing to Paimon, I’ve learned a great deal and grown both technically and as an open-source contributor. Much of that growth has come from working with everyone in the community—discussing ideas, reviewing code, and solving problems together. I’m grateful to everyone who has supported me along the way.
I look forward to taking on the responsibilities of this role and continuing to contribute to Paimon community. Best, Hongbo 原始邮件 发件人：Jingsong Li <[email protected]> 发件时间：2026年9月8日 18:12 收件人：dev <[email protected]>, user <[email protected]> 主题：[ANNOUNCE] New Apache Paimon PMC Member - Hongbo Xiao (hope) Hi, everyone On behalf of the PMC, I'm very happy to announce Hongbo Xiao (hope) as the new Paimon PMC Member.
