Hi there! I am Volkan, an avid free and open-source software contributor. 👋 Are you using PostgreSQL, Nagios1, or Log4j? Then you are using something I have contributed to! 💯 (There are dozens of more! 😅) I became a member of the Apache Logging Services (log4j, log4jcxx, etc.) PMC in 2020. Since then, my focus has been shifted mostly to Log4j. I reply to Log4j-related questions in StackOverflow and JIRA, do bug triage, review & accept merge requests, fix bugs, improve documentation, enhance build system, etc. Regular maintainer stuff. Next to that, I proudly hold the gates for the JSON Template Layout.
There are plenty of fantastic stuff I want to contribute to Log4j! There are also plenty of stuff that I want to either remove or rewrite too; redundant modules, legacy features, deprecated documentation, unreliable build system, old fashioned website, ... you name it. Though it is difficult to pursue such ambitious goals by spreading the work into evenings, after putting kids to sleep, cleaning up the dishes, etc. Occasionally, I use my vacations from work. With your generous sponsorship, I will be able to take more days off and spend more time on the project.
