[gentoo-dev] New developers: Martin Ehmsen (ehmsen) and Michal Kurgan (moloh)

[Tom Martin]

Hi list,

Two new developers to tell you about. First up is Martin Ehmsen, who is
going to be helping out with the text-markup herd, i.e. tex ;). He's
already prepared a bit about him:

"I'm a 25 year old Dane living in Odense on Fyn,the central island of 
Denmark. I'm studying computer science at the University of Southern 
Denmark and currently I'm writing a master thesis about on-line 
algorithms which is a special kind of approximation algorithms.
Besides the studying, I'm living with my girlfriend and trying to fix 
our new apartment for our coming baby (yeah... I'm going to be a father 
in June... too late to bail out now :) When I have some spare time I'm
very much into watching movies and my DVD collection is growing by the
week. I'm mostly into Asian and older movies (actually everything that
contains a bit of meaning... not the latest Fast and the Furious X and
similar). I also play football (not the American kind).

I have contributed patches to several projects including openbox, psi, 
rsync, nano and bbkeys. I have also coded several small 
i'm-probably-the-only-user kind of apps... like a small daemon for a 
Remote Wonder ATI remote control, so that I can control my music
without having to have X running. I have been programming for a lot of
years (can't remember when I started). I teach (or have taught) C,
Java, Prolog and Haskell at my university, besides that I use (or have
used) LISP, Bash (zsh or whatever),... and so on :)"

The other new developer, Michal Kurgan, is going to be translating the
GWN into Polish. He writes:

"I am 24 years old, and i was born in one of major cities in Poland,
Krakow. I finished my MSc thesis, this year, at University of Science
and Technology in Poland, currently i start my PhD program at
University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada.  My best time spending
hobbies would be working with computer (still, after about 1.5 year
"Gentoo playing" is great pleasure), literature (mostly fantasy or sf),
hard & heavy music and for a sport i prefer basketball."

Michal knows C, C++, PHP, sh, ProLog, MySQL and VHDL.

Please help me welcome Martin and Michal to the rabble. :)
