Welcome new Guide: Marcus Denker


As most of you know, Daniel Vainsencher retired recently as one of the 
six Squeak Guides.

The remaining Guides discussed what we should do to find a replacement 
Guide.  We decided that, since this was the first replacement, we'd go 
the simpler route and choose someone that we all agreed on, as opposed 
to having some sort of election.  At some point in the future, we would 
like to have a more formal election process, or possibly even re-think 
the current scheme of having exactly six Guides who rotate every 6-24 
months.  Some brainstorming on this topic would be welcome.  (For 
example, one possible tool for voting in elections would be the trust 
metrics from the Squeak People site.)

Anyway, for choosing the next Guide, we wanted someone who we thought 
was competent and had also been doing Guide-related work as a volunteer. 
 Several people could probably fill this role, but we decided to offer 
it to Marcus Denker, who has been doing a lot of work as a harvester, 
working on incorporating larger items such as SmaCC, maintaining the 
BaseImageTests package, etc.

So, welcome Marcus!

Marcus' exact role as a Guide has not been explicitly mapped out, but it 
could certainly include the work he's already doing with harvesting and 
testing infrastructure.

Thanks again for all the good work from Marcus, Daniel, the Guides, and the 
rest of the Squeak community!
