New Core Committers

[pento]

We have three new Core committers that need to be added, following the process here: ​https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/best-practices/when-you-become-a-committer/

---

ianbelanger - Theme commit access.

@desrosj will take him through the handbook.

He's already been added to /home/svn/etc/develop.svn.wordpress.org, but none of the other steps are complete.

---

TimothyBlynJacobs - Full commit access.

Note: username does have capital letters in it.

@jorbin will take him through the handbook.

---

joedolson - Full commit access.

I'm not aware of a volunteer to guide him through the process, yet.

[jorbin]

I have had the talk with @TimothyBlynJacobs. He is ready to be added.

For reference, here's the approval posts:

The SVN steps, capes, password watcher, and Trac labels have been updated. The only pending tasks here are the actual human steps of guiding through the process.

I had a long talk with @afercia a few weeks ago, although the phrase "the talk" was not used in the conversation, so I don't know whether that's been done. Happy to go through the handbook with anybody, though. Don't intend to do anything specific until after 5.3 is released, though, so no rush.
