[Jikesrvm-researchers] Daniel Frampton joins Jikes RVM Core Team

[Michael H. <hi...@us...>]

It is my pleasure to welcome Daniel Frampton to the Jikes RVM core team.

Daniel is a graduate student working with Steve Blackburn at Australian 
National University.

He has been using Jikes RVM for some time, and has made a number of 
significant contributions to the system, such as the new object model, a 
clean up of magic, the addition of ObjectReference, and new options 
parsing for MMTk  (and soon to be the rest of the system).

Daniel is a great example of the process specified in the "Roles in the 
Jikes RVM Project" page 
(http://www-124.ibm.com/developerworks/oss/jikesrvm/info/core.shtml). 
Daniel initially was a user, then a contributor, and now a core team 
member with checkin rights and responsibilities.

We look forward to having others follow in Daniel's footsteps.

Congrats Daniel!

Mike
