A few weeks back the Camel PMC voted another one of the very active and talented contributors to become a committer.
Ben O'Day was actively involved with Apache Camel for about a year contributing code and helping other users. In the past months his activity reached a new level. Ben proactively assigned reported issues to himself and took them to resolution acting as a committer. In recognition of his work, the PMC only had to take care of the simple task of making that official. Today, Ben got his committer account setup, concluding the process of becoming the newest Camel rider. Stay tuned for his first official commit.
On behalf of the Camel PMC, welcome aboard Ben and keep up the great work!

The Apache Camel community recently grew its ranks with a couple of new committers. Although Camel has been a mature project for a while now, the community keeps growing as is as strong as ever. The great thing though is that our committers keep showing the same dedication, although (I know) they have other commitments as well.
Today I have the pleasure to announce that Johan Edstrom, who became a committer some six months ago was invited to join the Apache Camel PMC. He demonstrated that he is both willing and capable of taking responsibilities that go beyond the code and involve the future of the project and the growth of the community. Johan, many thanks for your involvement and for the example you set. I am personally very proud of the whole community for its support and for being able to attract such rare individuals.
