Hi Apache RocketMQ Community, The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache RocketMQ has invited Yangkun Ai (apache id :aaronai) to become PMC Member and we are pleased to announce that she has accepted.
Along the way of building and flourishing Apache RocketMQ community, he has contributed a lot of challenging yet significant features, keeping Apache RocketMQ valuable among new technology trends. Back to 2019, ServiceMesh became the keyword of the year. Issues, and threads in mailing lists were seen, expecting the support of Apache RocketMQ on envoy proxy, the de facto standard to Service Mesh data plane. He, after conquering challenging model-mismatch difficulties, makes Apache RocketMQ accessible to service mesh community, with very good code quality. See [1]. In addition to expanding Apache RocketMQ potential user population, he enhances observability of Apache RocketMQ following OpenTelemetry through refining logging, defining metrics, and tracing. He even contributes an extension specification to OpenTelemtry. See [2]. Apache RocketMQ clients offer limited reliable choices for non-Java users. Ai, collaborating with other members, defines new client-server protocol v2, a new set of APIs, and independently implements Apache RocketMQ Java SDK v5.x. See [3][4]. He is also the release manager of Apache RocketMQ Java SDK v5.0.0 and C/C++ SDK v5.0.0. Apache RocketMQ main repository also witnesses his active participation, from issue disscusion[5], pull request review to feature implementation[6]. He also helps modernize CI infrastructure, automating pull-request mergeability checks and shortening the amount of time required to see pull request impacts. Congrats, guy :-) Notice: Being a PMC member enables assistance with the management and guides the direction of the project.
