I hereby nominate Fei Yang (fyang)[1] for JDK Reviewer.

Felix is currently the JDK Committer and the member of JVM team at Huawei. His main area of 
expertise is the HotSpot JIT compiler and one of his notable contributions is the backend of C1 & C2 
JIT compilers for RISC-V. Felix has been active in AArch64 as well [2].

He is also the Project Lead for RISC-V Port [3], which implements a full-featured JVM on 
Linux/RISC-V platform, including the template interpreter, C1/C2 and all current mainline GCs. That 
work had been integrated to mainline recently. Gaining a Reviewer role in OpenJDK would help Felix 
to lead RISC-V port development and maintenance in mainline.

Votes are due by 23:59 UTC, April 12, 2022.

Only current JDK Reviewers [4] are eligible to vote on this nomination. Votes must be cast in the 
open by replying to this mailing list.

For Three-Vote Consensus voting instructions, see [5].
