Ryan Lortie has contributed significantly to the GNOME Applets
codebase. You will find examples of his code in at least battstat,
gweather and gtik to name recent examples. He has assisted in
filling in maintainership and patch review roles when I have been
busy and is an excellent software engineer.

Outside, but related to the project. He has worked to track down
bugs in our dependancy libraries, including HAL and D-BUS. He also
has spent some time working with inotify.

He is active and enthusiatic and I see no reason he shouldn't be
able to join the foundation.
