Hello all,
I'm very pleased to welcome Priyanka Dhanda to the Wikimedia Foundation as Code Maintenance Engineer. Priyanka joins us from SourceForge Inc., where she worked since 2002 as a software developer and also was involved in operations, working on most pieces of the infrastructure, and integrating third party software with the SourceForge platform (including MediaWiki). Priyanka holds a Master's Degree in Computer Science from the University of Toledo, Ohio, and a Bachelor of Technology in Computer Science and Engineering from the Pondicherry Engineering College in India.
She is starting today and will work in the San Francisco office.
Priyanka will be a key interface between software developers and the operations team, helping us to catch up with our code and bug review backlog, to mentor new developers, to push projects to completion, and to improve testing and automation. Please don't swamp her immediately with requests as she'll need some time to get more deeply oriented in the MediaWiki codebase. :-) You'll be seeing her in the IRC channels, on SVN, Code Review, BugZilla, wikitech-l, and so forth.
Please join me in welcoming Priyanka to the Wikimedia team! :-)
All best, Erik
Forwarding to wikitech-l, for anyone who's not on the other list.
Yay!
-Chad

GMail groups any mail sent/cross posted into a single entity for some reason which is quite a pain when they are either cc'ed together or both sent from the to line =(.

Great news!
Welcome, Priyanka! I'm sure you'll find plenty of help from both staff and community as you get settled and oriented. I look forward to seeing another pair of hands at work.
Erik, It's great to see that the hiring process is moving forward. I look forward to more announcements, in particular The Big One (best of luck filling it).
