+# Ewoud Kohl van Wijngaarden
+
+I, [Tim Meusel](https://github.com/bastelfreak), (again) nominate Ewoud as a PMC
+candidate.
+
+Ewoud is awesome! That's it. That should be enough as an introduction. And he
+proved that again in the past year as PMC member and at different conference
+talks.
+
+He is around in the Vox Pupuli community since 2016-02-22. I'm doing Puppet
+stuff since a decade and he's the person I ask when I am stuck. Ewoud
+is a recognized expert in the Foreman community and in Vox Pupuli. His PR
+reviews are so helpful because he always finds stuff that could be improved and
+teaches newcomers about it. He was the driving force behind our Travis-CI to
+GitHub Actions migration. He refactored our whole CI setup to make it:
+* more efficient
+* faster
+* easier to extend for future Operating systems, Ruby versions and Puppet versions
+* [reduce boilerplate code in modulesync\_config][msync] so we need to run msync less often!
+
+Ewoud also did [a presentation][talks] at CfgMgmtCamp about the CI setup.
+
+I would love to see Ewoud again in the PMC because he deserves it. Ewoud, and
+the work he delivers, is amazing. He adds great value to the PMC and the whole
+Puppet ecosystem.
