The PyTorch Core Maintainers got two new nominations this cycle and accepted both nominations.

We welcome Alban Desmaison (@albanD , Meta) and Piotr Bialecki (@ptrblck , NVIDIA) to the PyTorch Core Maintainers, adding to the existing Core Maintainer cohort of Gregory Chanan (Meta), Edward Yang (Meta), Dmytro Dzhulgakov (Fireworks.ai), Nikita Shulga (Meta) and me (Meta).

As a reminder, The Core Maintainers are empowered to be the final arbitrers of all technical decisions that involve pytorch/pytorch, and their membership survives employment (i.e. moving companies, etc.).
