A big +1 from me. Michael is a great contributor, his skills are solid
and he likes to discover solutions for complex issues, and he does it
very quickly.
He's also active in several projects, this give him an all-around
knowledge of Ubuntu development you can rarely found elsewhere.
For bonus points, he almost finished his NM process ;)

Speaking of his work, we recently completed GNAT 4.2 transition in
Hardy. Several packages were uninstallable because of a transition of
GNAT from 4.1 to 4.2. Michael provided some patches for problematic
packages which helped a lot to complete the process to finally have a
solid ADA stack.
