[equinox-dev] Vote for Committer status for Mykola Nikishov was started

[portal-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxx (portal on behalf of )]

rt.equinox Committers,
This automatically generated message signals that Thomas Watson has
nominated Mykola Nikishov as a Committer on the rt.equinox project. The
reason given is as follows:

Mykola has continued to show great interest in enhancing and fixing issues
in p2.  This is evident by the following list of bugs he has authored fixes
for:

Bug 493193 - MirrorApplication should explicitly use MD5 artifact
comparator
Bug 494822 - Pass a range specification unconditionally
Bug 336246 - Remove the metadata generator
Bug 490028 - Extract MD5 checksum calculation into a separate class
Bug 471875 - [IconExe] Improve error message when launcher's icons has not
been replaced

As well as several other contributions reviewed through gerrit:

https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/84519
https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/72223
https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/58861
https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/57915
https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/52386

Mikola also has a number of contributions awaiting review in gerrit.  I
think this is a good time to welcome Mikola as a committer for Equinox to
enable Mikola to continue to make improvements to p2 and perhaps other
components in Equinox.

Note that Equinox subprojects have merged [1] so this is not only a
nomination for committership to the p2 codebase, but the entire Equinox
project which includes the framework and all the equinox bundles.

The vote is being held via the MyFoundation portal: voters *must* use the
portal for the votes to be properly recorded.  The voting will continue
until either all 37 existing Committers have voted or until they have been
given enough time to vote, even if they do not do so (defined as at least
one week). Mykola Nikishov must receive at least three +1s and no -1s for a
successful election.

Eligible Committers must cast their votes through their My Foundation
portal page (do NOT just reply to this email; your vote will not be
correctly recorded unless you use the portal):

*NOTE*: Successful elections are left open for a maximum of 120 days to
allow for processing of paperwork.  After that time the election will be
expired, regardless of its current status.  Should papework processing on
the part of the candidate take more time than allowed, a new election will
have to be held.
