+== Introducing Our Contributors
+
+We've received a few words from our contributors, all of whom volunteered their time beyond their day jobs.

+
+Hello, I’m Miyuka Nishio, and I’m currently in my second year at IBM. I serve as a technical sales specialist for WebSphere Liberty and Open Liberty, focusing on pre-sales activities and community management. My background was primarily in accounting before I joined IBM, so I had little experience with Java development. However, my manager encouraged me to get involved in translating the Open Liberty blog as part of my professional development. This opportunity has enabled me to learn about Liberty's new features and strengthen my engineering skills. There’s still much for me to learn, but I am eager to continue growing as an engineer and contributing meaningfully to the Open Liberty project.

+link:https://www.linkedin.com/in/tsuyoshi-baba-babatch[Tsuyoshi Baba]
+
+I joined IBM Japan in 1998 and began working with WebSphere soon after the release of WebSphere Application Server V1.1 in Japan that same year. Initially, I was involved in product marketing before transitioning to technical sales, where I supported our business partners. In 2022, I returned to IBM Japan and now focus on Application Modernization, including WebSphere, as a technical sales specialist.
+
+I find the top article rankings very intriguing. It seems timeless that once someone gets an application server running, the next step is always to connect it to a database and start building applications. Announcements about new versions of Java EE/Jakarta EE, Java SE, and MicroProfile are also popular. And of course, Spring continues to be a strong presence! The popularity of articles about ARM64 containers might be due to the increasing number of developers using the new Apple Silicon-equipped Macs—I'm one of them too.
+
+I look forward to continuing to support the evolution of Open Liberty/WebSphere Liberty!

+
+I joined IBM Japan in 2002 and worked extensively in technical sales for WebSphere Application Server and Rational, providing proposals, consulting, and system development in the delivery department. In 2024, I took on responsibilities for Liberty, impressed by its lightweight architecture and zero-migration capabilities, and have been recommending migration to our clients.
+
+My expertise is in DevOps, particularly in the development domain.  I am also a registered smaller enterprise consultant in Japan. For leisure, I enjoy playing the saxophone.

+
+Despite not being a member of the technical sales team, Kaori jumped in at the launch of our blog and took on numerous translations. Her contributions truly highlighted the beauty of open source, where anyone can contribute. Without Kaori's help, it would have been challenging to overcome the initial stages of our blog. Thank you, Kaori!

+
+Mr. Tanaka, affectionately known as 'Takakiyo-san' by his colleagues and the technical community,has been a technical sales specialist at IBM Japan for over 20 years, focusing primarily on the WebSphere Application Server and Java technologies. He has delivered numerous presentations at various community events on Java and enterprise Java technologies. His first blog post "link:https://openliberty.io/ja/blog/2022/09/01/openliberty-guides-in-japanese.html[Learn how to develop cloud-native Java applications and deploy them to Kubernetes environments using the Open Liberty Guides. (Japanese only)]"" consistently ranks among the top 10 most popular articles. He has also started translating monthly blog articles, playing a pivotal role in the success of this blog.

+== Reflecting on a successful two years
+
+As we celebrate two years of the Open Liberty Japanese blog, it's clear that our community-driven approach has been a key factor in its success. The popularity of our technical articles demonstrates a strong appetite for localized content that addresses the specific needs and interests of Japanese developers. We're grateful for the opportunity to continue serving this community and look forward to building on the momentum we've established, with a continued focus on delivering high-quality, relevant content that supports the growth and development of Open Liberty users in Japan and beyond.
