[python-committers] Proposed new core developer -- Mariatta Wijaya

[Senthil Kumaran]

I cast a + 1 vote too.

Positives I imagine are:

* Her motivation to contribute.
* She addresses feedback provided on patches and follows up.
* Raymond's mentorship.

It will be better, if in near future

* She identifies a focus area and becomes an expert in that.

Thanks,
Senthil
