+### **Becoming a committer**
+
+As described elsewhere, there are many ways we welcome you to
+contribute the Apache Arrow project such as issue reports,
+documentation, tests, and code. Some particularly active contributors
+may also receive an invitation to become a committer.
+
+The PMC regularly adds new committers from the set of active
+contributors. Becoming a committer is a recognition of sustained
+contribution to the project, and comes with the privilege of
+committing changes directly in all Arrow github repositories. Becoming
+a committer is also a significant responsibility, and committers are
+expected to use their status and access to improve the Arrow project
+for the entire community.
+
+Anyone wishing to become a committer can already do all of the things a
+committer does except for merge a PR. While there is no set list of
+requirements, nor a checklist that entitles one to commit privileges,
+typical behaviors include:
+
+* Consistent, significant, and sustained involvement in the Arrow
Review Comment:
This is a good point. To keep things concise, what about instead using the
word "contributions" instead as it defined in the first paragraph to be many
other things other than PRs ?
```suggestion
* Consistent, significant, and sustained contributions to the Arrow
