For the past couple of months the number of contributions and modifications to Nancy have really grown in a nice and organic way. During that time it’s started to be a real task to take care of all outstanding work, maintain the community presence, work on documentation and all other things that comes with an open-source project.
For that reason I have decided that the Nancy team needed to expand and there was one candidate that stood out in the crowed. He has contributes more awesome features to Nancy than I can recall, he’s the one person I have an ongoing dialogue with about the progression and vision of the project and I see no better person to gain commit access to the main repository.
I am, of course, talking about the lean mean British “I-code-better-on-beer-and-wine” machine, Steven Robbins a.k.a @grumpydev, author of TinyIoC among things. He also coined the term “super-duper-happy-path” that we use as a guiding star on each new feature we design for Nancy.
Over the next couple of weeks are going to start ironing out all the details for turning the Nancy repository into an organization and moving things out of the core repository, such as the 3rd party dependencies (they will still be around, but not in the main solution).
So, welcome aboard Grumpy and thank you for all your hard and amazing work on Nancy!
