NOMINATION: Matthew Schmidt

[Dave Johnson]

Matt was one of the earliest users and supporters of Roller. He's the 
director of technology at the Javalobby and along with Rick Ross he 
helped grow the Roller community by offering free Roller-based blogs at 
JRoller.com. Matt, Rick and I spent many hours on instant messenger, on 
the phone and at Javalobby headquarters (here in Cary, NC) debugging 
Roller's early performance problems. Since then, he's played an active 
role in the Roller dev list and I've continued to work with him on 
Roller issues via instant messenger.

Matt is part of the Roller developer and user community, does good work 
and I'd like to encourage his further contributions and involvement by 
nominating him for committer status on Roller and giving him his first 
+1.
