[TCLCORE] ANNOUNCE: Miguel Sofer added to Tcl Core Team

The Tcl Core Team is pleased to announce that the following
resolution was passed in "closed session":

------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Whereas, Miguel Sofer has been an active Tcl maintainer since
     the Tcl Core Team first accepted outsiders into the ranks of
     maintainers;

     Whereas, he cheerfully tackles Tcl's most difficult
     development problems;

     Whereas, his work on the bytecode engine has been creative
     and resulted in Tcl 8.4 being the fastest Tcl release ever;

     Whereas, he has shown mature technical judgment in advising
     the TCT on pending Tcl Improvement Proposals;

     Whereas, he has exhibited exemplary diligence in maintaining
     the quality of Tcl implementation;

     Therefore, be it

     Resolved, that Miguel Sofer be invited to join the Tcl Core
     Team as a voting member.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The voting record:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
YES:   De Jong, Fellows, Harrison, Hipp, Hobbs, Ingham, Kenny,
        Kupries, McLennan, Ousterhout, Porter, Welch
Other: None received
------------------------------------------------------------------------

The invitation was conveyed to Miguel, and his reply was:

------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am honored by the invitation to join the TCT. It is with great
pleasure that I accept it.

Sharing the responsibility to steer Tcl future with colleagues of your
standing fills me with pride. I'll take to heart my new reponsibilities;
this implies among other things that I'll have to familiarise myself
with Tk, having had a pure Tcl life until now.

I hope I'll be able to keep contributing to this lovely language's
evolution to your and, especially, our wonderful community's
satisfaction. I certainly will do my best.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

I ask the Tcl community to welcome Miguel Sofer as the newest
member of the Tcl Core Team.
