Dear Biopythoneers,

I would like you all to welcome Markus Piotrowski to the
Biopython GitHub team, with the initial goal to official
take over maintenance of the Bio.Restriction module.

https://github.com/MarkusPiotrowski

Are there any other suggestions for overlooked regular
contributors? I have contacted another candidate off-list,
but they wanted to check with their employer before
taking this any further.

Note the mailing lists remain unreliable, see also:

Thank you,

Peter
