I nominate Mike
McIntosh be added to the Higgins project as a committer. Mike has been making
valuable contributions to the Higgins project since April. For example, prior
to the June demonstrations at the Berkman Id Mashup conference in Cambridge,
Mike burned the midnight
oil working out how to integrate IBM’s STS component with Higgins, and
together we successfully demonstrated sign-in to some Microsoft CardSpace-compatible
relying (prototype) sites. He has also contributed Higgins bug fixes and new
interfaces for me to commit into the project. Since then, Mike has gathered
requirements for the STS working with other members of the Eclipse community
and has led the STS development work that will be contributed to Higgins in
August. Mike works in research for IBM.
Higgins Committers please
respond to this email with either: +1 (yes) -1 (veto), or 0 (abstain) or request
for more information. The voting period is one week. If I don't hear from
a given committer within that time, I'll assume a vote of 0. If we
receive at least three positive votes with no negative votes the addition will likely
be approved and I'll start the rest of the process described here http://www.eclipse.org/legal/newcommitter.php.
