Afternoon list, |

|
| 3 |
I'm happy to be able to announce another developer has joined the team. |
| 4 |
His name is Eric Edgar, and some of you may know him as rocket on IRC. |
| 5 |
Anyway, I'll let his mentor, Chris Gianelloni, do the talking: |

Eric has been suckered into working for Release Engineering, doing |
| 9 |
development for both catalyst and genkernel, and hopes to add proper Xen |
| 10 |
support to Gentoo. He has already made some pretty amazing patches, |
| 11 |
which you all will get to abuse as new capabilities on the 2005.0 |
| 12 |
release. He codes in python, perl, bash, and some C, so if you guys |
| 13 |
need a code monkey of your own, he's taken... ;] |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Eric comes from a planet we affectionately call Ppbbbb't, but that most |
| 16 |
of you know as Minnesota, where he spends his days slaving as a Unix |
| 17 |
Administrator for an unnamed telecommunications company. Eric is |
| 18 |
engaged to be married in May. When he's not working or pleasing the |
| 19 |
missus, he enjoys reading and going to movies, along with *gasp* |
| 20 |
outdoors activities like snowmobiling, four-wheeling, and skydiving. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
He's been hanging around #-releng enough to know to fear the goats, but |
| 23 |
he hasn't been hit with it quite yet, so we all can welcome him |
| 24 |
"properly". |
| 25 |
""" |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
So, everyone give me and Chris a hand in welcoming Eric to the team. |

Cheers, |
