I'd like to propose tomoya ishida (@tompng (tomoya ishida)) as a Ruby committer.

• As a maintainer of IRB / Reline since 2023, he has been continuously improving the REPL's stability and performance. Also, he authored type-based completion mechanism which is going to be included by default in the upcoming Ruby 3.4.

• For some reasons, he is extraordinarily good at finding trivial and tricky syntax bugs. He already has reported massive numbers of very weird bugs to the new parsers. https://github.com/ruby/prism/issues/created_by/tompng
  I believe, keeping having such unique inputs from him would help improving the parsers and the language syntax in a way that only he can do.

• He triggered and implemented Ruby 3.4's Hash#inspect improvement
  https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20433
  https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/10924

• In fact ruby's repo already includes some more pieces of code written by him that show how talented programmer he is. (e.g. https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/master/sample/trick2022/01-tompng/entry.rb

• He won this year's "Ruby Prize", which means he is considered an individual who made the most notable achievement for the community this year. https://rubyprize.jp/

I will do your account setup after releasing Ruby 3.4.0. Because I'm busy to release work until that.

Sorry to delay that.
