I hereby nominate John Coomes to Hotspot Group Lead [1].

John has been working on the HotSpot JVM for almost 10 years mainly on 
garbage collection where he was one of the primary developers of the 
parallel compacting garbage collector.  Recently he has been spending a 
lot of time looking after the hsx Project repositories and organizing 
regular deliveries of HotSpot into JDK 8 and JDK 7 updates.

Votes are due by 7:00PM UTC, Friday 6 April [2].

Only current members of the Hotspot Group [3] are eligible to vote on 
this nomination.  Votes must be cast in the open by replying to this 
mailing list.

For Simple Majority voting instructions, see [4].
