[gentoo-project] New developer: Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto (jmbsvicetto)

[Denis Dupeyron]

Looks like Jorge's announcement was slightly messed up, I apologize
for that. He has already been announced everywhere except on this
list, which is why this email won't appear on the gentoo-dev-announce
list.

It's my pleasure to announce that Jorge Manuel B. S. Vicetto is now
finally an ebuild developer. Jorge has previously been a forum
moderator, sparc AT and then AT lead, so he's hardly new to Gentoo. He
is already very busy with the KDE team working to bring us KDE 4.1.
Jorge also recently joined the undertakers subproject and was given
the devrel complimentary flyswatter.

I will keep his presentation very short as most of you already know
him. Let's just say that he comes from a place that is as unusual as
it is beautiful: the Azorean Islands. Instead I'd rather tell the
story of how Jorge is a very good example of how recruiters work
nowadays. He was a candidate for recruitment a few months ago, had his
review, but his technical skills lacked a bit. It was suggested to him
that he should get more experience and retry. And he did just that.
With the help of a few of us he worked hard and this time passed with
flying colors. This just to tell you that today the purpose of the
recruitment process is more about training than selecting candidates.
This takes time and (obligatory plug) we need help.

Please everybody, give a warm welcome to jmbsvicetto.

Denis.
