Agreed. Ankur and Curtis have been doing the heavy lifting for the
past year as I've been focusing on moving Eclipse to Git amongst other
things. They've done great work and deserve the honor. I will remain
as a committer and contribute when I can. Early next year, I should
have an intern available and plan to have them contribute to PDE and
some other Eclipse.org projects.

Darin, do you plan on staying involve at Eclipse at all? If not, we
can have you as a Committer Emertius.
