Proposed: add Jim Helwig as uPortal Committer.

+1.

----

Coding is not the only way to contribute; "Committer" as role might be more evocatively named "Steward", "Shepherd", "Guide", "Wrangler", or so.

Jim has served on the uPortal Steering Committee and as its chair for years, has given many conference presentations relating to uPortal, posts to uPortal lists occasionally and with some thoughtfulness, and basically does a fair amount of non-coding stuff in this community. We the committers should recognize and encourage this.

Committership is a state of mind. I think Jim is regularly of the state of mind of trying to act in the best interests of the project.

----

Committer add vote operates as a "consensus vote". That means we need 3 committer +1s and no binding vetos for the proposal to carry, and the vote runs for a week to allow a seemly opportunity for voting.

With one week elapsed and so the vote closed:

5 binding +1s:
No vetoes.

The proposal carries: welcome, Jim.
