In my first official act as a Pants maintainer, it is my pleasure to announce that Joshua Cannon has been elected by the maintainers to Contributor!

Joshua joined the community over the summer and dove in immediately with ideas, advocacy, feature requests, and code contributions. Among his contributions to the project so far:
  • Added `--unowned-dependency-behavior` option for Python
  • [WIP] `pants clean` goal
  • Added a "Pex binaries from sources" macro, with semantics akin to `python_sources`
  • Contributed a quote to the Bazel comparison blog post
Joshua brings enthusiasm for Python and Pants to all of his interactions in the community, and is quickly developing a knack for troubleshooting problems for himself and others. Most of all, his ongoing contributions of code, feedback, advocacy, energy, and pithy quotables are helping to make both the project and community more engaging and useful.

Thank you, Joshua. Congratulations, and welcome to the Pants team!
