[lsp4j-dev] plan to retire inactive committers

[Jonah Graham <jonah@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi LSP4J committers,

One of the responsibilities of the project leads is to make sure that the committer list is kept up to date.

As such I have started a review in https://github.com/eclipse-lsp4j/lsp4j/issues/1007 - please weigh in there if you have thoughts.

Thanks

Jonah

Hi LSP4J committers,

Please show up to vote - it's part of being a committer in good standing. It also sends an important message as to the health of the project. There are currently 11 committers in the project, but so far only 2 votes. 

As a project lead one of my responsibilities should be to handle retirement of inactive committers adequately. I have not been particularly active in that area so far. As Vladimir takes on the project co-leadership I want him to be able to start on the best foot, which means I should handle cleaning up inactive committers now. In case you are wondering, you can see the current list of active committers here on the PMI. Here is a list:

Vladimir Piskarev
Guillaume Dufour
Matthew Brown
Christian Dietrich
Yaohai Zheng
Jonah Graham
Dennis Huebner
Yevhen Vydolob
Jan Koehnlein
Moritz Eysholdt
Sven Efftinge

Please vote - or let me know your thoughts.

Thanks

Jonah

Voting will close on 2026-10-30 for the Project Lead election of Vladimir
Piskarev on project Eclipse LSP4J (technology.lsp4j).

Criteria:

Vladimir has been a faithful steward and amongst the most active participants
of the LSP4J community, both before he was a committer and ever more since he
took on a committer role in 2021.

Therefore I am pleased to nominate Vladimir as a project lead for the LSP4J
project. With his years of committership, plus his experience as a Project
Lead on other Eclipse Foundation projects I believe LSP4J will be in good
hands.

Vladimir has dozens of substantive commits in LSP4J, including overseeing a
substantial amount of LSP 3.18 support in LSP4J. Vladimir also reviews and
provides inputs on many PRs and issues in the project
(https://github.com/eclipse-lsp4j/lsp4j/issues?q=involves%3Apisv)

It is my pleasure to nominate Vladimir as a project lead on Eclipse LSP4J.
