History of Clojure by Rich Hickey

The paper mentions at the very beginning this lady:

Shepherd: Mira Mezini, Technische Universität Darmstadt, Germany

I find it interesting, because I currently work in Darmstadt, which is a small university town very near to Frankfurt. Is the lady somehow active in Clojure community? Or in what way was she a “shepherd” of that paper?

Googling shows she is rather accomplished and renown computer scientist in the field of researching computer languages and cloud environment :+1:
