I would like to nominate @UsamaSadiq as a coding core contributor and maintainer for the following repos:

- openedx/django-config-models
- openedx/edx-rest-api-client
- openedx/django-user-tasks

As a part of the ArchBom team, @UsamaSadiq has done work across a wide variety of repos especially in the terms of maintenance and upgrade related fixes.

A full list of the many PRs Usama has created and merged can be found here: [Pull request search results · GitHub](https://github.com/search?q=org%3Aopenedx+author%3Ausamasadiq&type=pullrequests&p=5)

Since a two week comment period overlaps the week of Christmas and New Years which are holidays for many people, the comment period here will be longer to give people sufficient time to review and comment.

The comment period will close on 2025-01-09T05:00:00Z
