We had the following vote on the qpid private list to add 3 committers to the project. I would like to welcome them on as committers. Robert Godfrey , Andrew Stitcher , and Jim Meyering have all being voted onto the project with 7 or more +1's. There where no 0, or -1 cast. All three provided substantial contributions to the project over an extended period of 6-8 weeks. Contributions include queue browsing, a new C++ build and tool chain, performance enhancements, working JIRA which included new features and bug fixes in addition to helping others on the lists. I think it is fair to say that they have a solid grasp of the project.

Additional note:

This is the projects first new committer vote, so we did it on the private list as a first run. The vote happened on the private list following a discussion to make sure no one had any major concerns they'd rather bring up privately rather than to embarrass any of the potential committers. We should be able to conduct the vote on the dev list next time which on of our mentors called out for us. I think we now know how to do that without embarrassing anyone.

Welcome aboard.
Carl.
