We are extremely happy to announce that our long time in-the-trenches member of the support staff, Robin Sowell, has stepped up to become the new Code Mechanic for EllisLab. Many of you have known her for over three years as she has provided top rate support, often going well above and beyond the call of duty, always eager to do what it takes. In addition to daily helping users with their support needs, she has written add-ons, built a number of ExpressionEngine sites, and has become recently engrossed in CodeIgniter.
Robin has been a valuable asset to EllisLab and we’re happy to be able to provide a full-time roll for her as a member of the development team. I do have to apologize to many of our users for removing her from the daily technical support tasks, but you’ll still see her around, handling issues that need a keen eye, and hanging out in the development forums. With over 20,000 posts, she’s been a very visible part of the ExpressionEngine experience to most everyone, and we’re happy that that will continue in an increased capacity.
