I hereby resign my role as Lead of the Quality Group in the OpenJDK Community,
and I nominate and vote for Rory O'Donnell to be the next Quality Group Lead.
Rory, an Oracle employee, has over the past year made significant improvements
to OpenJDK quality by establishing processes to run and report regression test
results for JDK Release and Update Projects, providing a baseline for other
Projects, in particular porting efforts, to work with. He then worked to
expand that program, spearheaded the QA community outreach effort in the
OpenJDK Adoption Group, and brought a fresh voice into this Group's
conversations.
Since I am the only Member of the Quality Group, rather than running a formal
vote with myself for myself, I hereby state that Rory has my vote.
With that, I wish him luck, and I trust that the Governing Board will ratify
this choice.
Vita
