rspec users - Mar 2011 - Welcome Chad, Pat, Justin, and Myron!

I''m very pleased to announce the reformation of a core RSpec
development team:

Chad Humphries, a.k.a. spicycode, has been involved with RSpec since the 1.0
release, which he helped to usher out the door at RailsConf 2007. He
subsequently authored Micronaut [1], a lightweight, RSpec compatible spec
runner, which later became the basis for the rspec-core gem.

Pat Maddox has been contributing patches and blogging about RSpec and BDD since
2007 as well: most notably the =~ matcher for arrays and the last bit of glue
that turned plain text stories in Cucumber''s predecessor, the RSpec
Story Runner (which succeeded rbehave) into a reality.

Justin Ko has been actively contributing patches and participating on the
mailing list since last spring, but is probably best known for his creation of
http://relishapp.com, which now hosts RSpec 2''s documentation.

Myron Marston is the author of VCR [2], and has been contributing to RSpec since
last summer. He has a keen sense of BDD, and his patches continually impress me
with their thoroughness, attention to detail, and understanding of the wider
Ruby ecosystem in which RSpec makes its home.

Please join me in welcoming Chad, Pat, Justin, and Myron to the RSpec
development team.

Cheers,
David
