Dmitry Belyavskiy, OpenSSL maintainer, Red Hat
I work with OpenSSL for 20+ years, have been interacted with various parts of OpenSSL code base. Now I maintain OpenSSL in Fedora/Red Hat/CentOS.
My goal is to ensure a transparent happy path for external contributors to be able to contribute to OpenSSL. PRs should be reviewed, and the mechanisms to get a review should be transparent.
Currently I represent the Committers community in the Foundation Technical Advisory Committee.
