This man is already developer for some time, but the announce was
lagging. Well, better late than never... It's my pleasure to introduce
Gentoo developer Daniel Pielmeier (billie).

Daniel joined us from Stuttgart, Germany. He was born in Rimbach a small
village in the Bavarian Forest close to the Czech border, then studied
process engineering at the University of Applied Sciences in Regensburg
and since 2005 he works for a small engineering company doing
computational fluid dynamics.

About one fourth of all installed packages on his desktop match media-*
categories and he spent quite time on the multimedia stuff. Anyway he is
not going to join any media related teams although some media packages
are already improved by Daniel. In general he's going to join xfce, perl
and eventually vdr teams.

He enjoys watching movies and reading books which mostly deal with
fantasy, science-fiction and mythology. He used to practice/try various
kinds of sports not limited to soccer, volleyball, ninepins, hiking,
climbing and half-marathon. Currently, with time mostly occupied by work
he enjoys doing an occasional swim or jog.

Daniel told us: "My Hobbies are of course Gentoo." With such spectrum of
hobbies I'm sure he is valuable addition to our big team. If somebody
forgot to welcome Daniel on irc, please, do it now.
