I hereby nominate Severin Gehwolf <sgehwolf at redhat.com> to JDK Reviewer.

Severin has contributed ~60 changesets[1] to OpenJDK since 2015. Backporting work exceeds 10. This includes jdk11u and jdk8u[2]. Some backports were non-trivial. He has filed 2 CSRs[3] so far. Most contributions have been to hotspot/serviceability and build areas. Recent, yet uncommitted, work will include more container work in the JVM (cgroup v2) and a new jlink plugin. Specific changes worth mentioning: - Added Nestmates support to Zero (JEP-181)[4]. - Improved container limits dection in the JVM[5]. - Fixed a memory leak in the debugger[6].
