+1 for commit access for Lennard Fuller. Caution is good and granting commit access to folks with less public presence than would be ideal gives one pause, but several existing committers can and have supported Lennard's bid for committership and Lennard does have an existing public JA-SIG presence through his conference participation, most recently via the demanding Pearson portal project that had presentation and presence at the recent Denver JA-SIG conference.

I expect Lennard will have good perspective to bring to the project from that experience using uPortal in a large, production environment.

I do believe we should exercise with caution who we give commit access to the JA-SIG codebase, and in particular the uPortal project.

However, I can not say enough good things about the quality of code Lennard would contribute. In my approximately 10 years at Unicon, Lennard has always produced code at a quality level above ALL OTHER developers I've worked with. Lennard is creative and can solve problems in ways not seen by others.

Lennard also has recent experience with JSR 170 and Alfresco, two things that many uPortal adopters has expressed interest in.

+1 for commit access for Lennard from me.

I would like to request commit access to the uPortal project. I am currently an architect who has been working on the Pearson project (large scale uPortal deployment) for roughly the last two years. Until fairly recently any bug fixes or enhancements that the Pearson team had to contribute back to the uPortal community were funneled through Andreas Christoforides or Cris Holdorph. Both have since moved on to other projects and my attempt to snag a slice of Andrew Petro's time has met with failure.... hence the request:)

For those of you that don't know me....
Am a Unicon employee (6+ years), have 8+ years of java development experience, a degree in Computer Science from ASU and have lead development efforts for the past 5 years for Cisco and Pearson Education. Over the last 2 years I've been lucky enough to attend a number of ja-sig conferences and have presented on a number of topics.
