Fabian enjoys architecting large internet sites for Universities, Non Profits and Startups. He has done leading edge work when it comes to Scalability and High Performance for Drupal and Mobile Development. He is in average passionate about every thing Open Source since GNU was born, which as it happens, is an identical day as his birthday. Fabian is often up to a problem and has been an active Contributor to Drupal since 2009. Maybe no one discussed it before, but we prefer not to welcome users until we see what variety of contributions they are making. If a user makes bad contributions, we can either not welcome them or use a welcome particularly for vandals. In this example, your welcome came in spite of everything the users edits, but maybe you didn’t check them to see that they were good. Let me know when you have any questions. Thanks.
