Misc #21369
openPropose Max Bernstein (@tekknolagi) as a core committer
Description
Proposal¶
I'd like to propose Max Bernstein (@tekknolagi (Maxwell Bernstein)) as a committer. He has a strong background in compilers, having previously worked on CPython/Cinder at Meta, and has demonstrated leadership in designing and optimizing ZJIT.
Given that he is leading the development of the ZJIT IR and has been making a lot of contributions, I believe he should be empowered to merge such changes himself.
I'll include his message below for reference:
Max Bernstein's Message¶
I have been working on Ruby since December 2024. My main contributions so far have been to ZJIT:
- The high-level IR (HIR) data structures
- The IR
- The type lattice https://github.com/Shopify/zjit/pull/19
- Transforming YARV bytecode into HIR
- Optimization on HIR, such as
- Type inference https://github.com/Shopify/zjit/pull/23
- Constant folding https://github.com/Shopify/zjit/pull/74
- Direct calls https://github.com/Shopify/zjit/pull/84
- Strength reduction
- Dead code elimination (DCE) https://github.com/Shopify/zjit/pull/89
After we moved the ZJIT repo into ruby/ruby, I have continued contributing (see all PRs). I would like to continue contributing to ZJIT and eventually to other parts of Ruby too. Being a maintainer would make it easier to work on ZJIT, especially as we continue the project bringup phase.
