[openj9-dev] Committer Election for Adam Brousseau on Eclipse OpenJ9™ has started

A committer election for Adam Brousseau on project Eclipse OpenJ9™
(technology.openj9) was started by Dan Heidinga with this criteria:

Adam Brousseau has been leading the Eclipse OpenJ9 infrastructure efforts and
has been the project's critical goto person for all things related to builds,
infrastructure, and release mechanics.  He's been an active contributor to
the project since its inception in 2017. During that time he has contributed
over 300 pull requests [1][2][3] adding over 15,000 new LOC. He has also
reviewed over 388 of his peers' pull requests [4][5][6].

Adam is the initial author of all the infrastructure code (Jenkins Pipelines)
in the project - including the main repo, the docs repo and the website. He's
been the driving force behind our project's infrastructure and primary
architect for its design and implementation, guiding the efforts to keep our
builds running smoothly throughout.

This allowed the OpenJ9 project to have automated build & test including
nightly runs, pull request builds, and acceptance builds that test new OMR
and OpenJDK levels. Over time, he added infrastructure code to automate
builds for the OpenJ9 website and the OpenJ9 documentation. Today, the
pipelines are mature, but he continues to be one of two top contributors when
new features are requested or if problems arise. He also administers the
Jenkins instance where all the automated builds runs as well as the
Artifactory server where build artifacts are stored. When the Jenkins server
needed to be migrated to a new instance in early 2021, he single-handedly
made it happen over a weekend without any downtime. His attention to detail
ensured that nothing was missed even with the tight timeline restriction.

During pull request reviews, Adam maintains a high level of scrutiny over new
code. This level of analysis and thoroughness ensures that the build farm
continues to operate at a high quality standard with minimal problems and
minimal disruptions.

I believe Adam will be an excellent committer on the Eclipse OpenJ9 project.
