CFV: New OpenJDK 8u Reviewer: Andrew Haley

[Andrew Hughes]

I hereby nominate Andrew Haley [0] for the role of OpenJDK 8u Reviewer.

Andrew has been active within the OpenJDK project since its inception,
and has led both the OpenJDK 6 & 7 projects after Oracle stood down.
He is a current 'at large' member of the OpenJDK governing board,
having been successfully voted into that position on a number of occasions,
and is the lead & founder of the AArch64 project.

Most of his commits have been to OpenJDK 9 and later, thanks to the
AArch64 project, but there are still a fair number in 8u [1] [2].
In a similar manner to Andrew Dinn's nomination [3], his lack of reviewer
status on OpenJDK 8 Updates, while holding it on all later releases,
seems more a simple case of when he gained JDK reviewership -
as the same status is conferred on to new JDK releases, but
not retrospectively to older ones - than a lack of sufficient
technical qualification.  With the new JDK and JDK-Updates projects
covering all releases, this is a problem that only really applies
to the older releases.

Votes are due by the 6th of December, 2018, at 16h00 UTC.

Only current OpenJDK 8u Reviewers [4] are eligible to vote on this
nomination. Votes must be cast in the open by replying to this mailing
list.
