CFV: New JDK 9/10 Reviewer: Thomas Stuefe

Wed Mar 15 19:27:02 UTC 2017

I hereby nominate Thomas Stuefe (stuefe) to JDK 9 and JDK 10 Reviewer.

Thomas is a long standing member of the JVM team at SAP. He's main area of
expertise are the Hotspot runtime system and the AIX/os400 platform. He's
one of the initial authors of the AIX port. During the last years he has
contributed 53 changesets across the hotspot(43) [3], jdk(7) [4]  and
top-level (3) [5] repositories (see below for a complete list).

Votes are due by 29 March 2017, 22:00 CET.

Only current JDK 9/10 Reviewers [1] are eligible to vote on this
nomination. Votes must be cast in the open by replying to this mailing list.

Since we are in the borderland between JDK 9 and JDK 10 now I'm not sure if
we need a vote per project so I'm sending this CFV to both the JDK 9 and
JDK 10 lists. Unless someone can verify that it is enough to vote for one
of these projects I kindly ask everybody who is on both lists to reply to
both mails and treat this as two separate votes.

For Three-Vote Consensus voting instructions, see [2].
