I don't for one, so it would be nice to have a short summary.  When
myself and others were nominated for OpenJDK membership, we did provide
details, despite there being copious evidence on the mailing lists.

I see his name (with many others) on one JDK changeset:

7113349: Initial changset for Macosx port to jdk7u

so I presume he's done significant work on the Mac OS X port, but it isn't
clear how much of this is Mike's contribution.

I would like to be sure before voting "Yes" as the bylaws state
"As a rough guide, for any given Project, a Contributor should make at
least eight significant contributions before being nominated."
