Hey everyone,

Thanks for the kind messages.=20

For the last ten years I've worked generally in the area of Apache Lucen=
e (at Elastic), but not been deeply involved in the development. Over th=
e past few months I've been focused on improving indexing performance fo=
r various analytic workloads, which motivated my PRs related to the colu=
mnar indexing effort. I'm glad that they were received positively. It ha=
s given me an avenue to engage more directly with the low-level Lucene d=
evelopment which I find quite interesting.

Looking forward to further involvement over the coming months.
