Review Comment:
   Good question. We use the term interchangeably - Committer is more formal 
ASF role, while being maintainer is more GitHub / Generic Open-Source term 
describing person who has the privilege and responsibility to maintain the 
repo. In our case the two are the same basically. I attempted to explain the 
dualism in updated text of the PR and correct "committer" to "maintainer" when 
it relates to "GitHub" related stuff and "committer" when it relates to more 
formal role (I think at least I managed to do it). This way we keep both term 
in use and it maybe even won't look strange.
