Welcome to the Toolforge Standards Committee Sohom Datta. I'm glad to see new folks getting involved in the group.
I would like to say thank you to the outgoing members from last year's reboot of the committee: Legoktm, MusikAnimal, TheProtonade, and Waldyrious. I hope to keep seeing all of you around the Toolforge and Wikimedia technical communities.
Finally, my thanks go out to JJMC89 for taking charge of coordinating the nominations, discussion, and vote on refreshing the committee membership.
Bryan
