please join me in welcoming Samuel Damashek (sdamashek) as the newest |
4 |
member of our dev crew. |

|

|

His joining is on time for the recent discussion around GLSA, as he is |
8 |
interested and already contributed to our security project. So expect |
9 |
more GLSA flow coming in in the future. |

|
11 |
In addition there are many packages in the tree already maintained by |
12 |
him through the proxy-maint[1] project. |

|

He will be also working in the webapps and python project. |

jlec: Why do you want to become a Gentoo developer? |
20 |
sdamashek: ... I love developing and contributing to projects like this, |
21 |
and want to give back. |
22 |
|
23 |
It's a nice stance on voluntary and open projects, isn't it? |

And now some lines he wrote himself: |
27 |
|

I’m from Seattle, Washington and love robotics. I mentor three VEX |
29 |
robotics teams. I’m currently a student in Fairfax, Virginia. My |
30 |
interests are networking, cybersecurity, and open-source development. |
