Gail Murphy is away on vacation but has approved of the committer
nomination, so I am putting her vote in:

+1

I would like to nominate Ian Bull, Chris Callendar, and Margaret-Anne
(Peggy) Storey as committers to the Mylar project.  They are the
developers
of Zest, a visualization toolkit for Eclipse, and based at the
University of
Victoria in Canada.

At this year's EclipseCon we noticed that there was a complementary
overlap
between the missions of Mylar and Zest. Both efforts are directed at
scaling the Eclipse user interface to gracefully handle very complex
systems.  Mylar's degree of interest model provides a focus+context
model
that visualizations can exploit, and Zest provides visualization
mechanisms
that can be used to graphically display Mylar's model.  While the
Mylar
development tool and Zest should always remain independently usable
and
extendable, we see a deep synergy between them.  Zest will make it
possible
to effectively use the real-estate of increasingly larger displays to
show
programmers rich task context in a graphical way. In turn, Zest will
benefit from Mylar's degree of interest and degree of separation
abstractions for navigating and searching visualizations of large data
sets.
We have already started down this road by working together to create a
Mylar/Zest prototype that uses a force-directed graph to visualize
task
context.

The plan is to have the UVic team commit their existing EPL-based
implementation to a new component of Mylar called
org.eclipse.mylar.zest.
This component would have its own set of committers, and Ian Bull
would
act
as the component lead.

I would like all of the current committers to vote either +1 or -1 for
or
against making Ian, Chris, and Peggy committers on the Mylar project.
