+Becoming a PMC member is the next step on the contributor ladder. This 
document describes what PMCs generally look for when considering a committer 
for PMC membership, and how you can position yourself for that invitation.
+As with becoming a committer, there are no guarantees. Each project sets its 
own bar, and the decision is made by the existing PMC members. But the 
behaviors described here are consistently valued across ASF projects.">

Congratulations! Now
+what?</p>
+<p>Becoming a PMC member is the next step on the <a 
href="/contributor-ladder.html">contributor
+ladder</a>. This document describes what PMCs
+generally look for when considering a committer for PMC membership, and
+how you can position yourself for that invitation.</p>
+<p>As with <a href="becomingacommitter.html">becoming a committer</a>, there 
are no
+guarantees. Each project sets its own bar, and the decision is made by
+the existing PMC members. But the behaviors described here are
+consistently valued across ASF projects.</p>

title="Permalink" href="#what-is-a-pmc-member">&para;</a></h2>
+<p>A Project Management Committee (PMC) member is someone entrusted with
+the governance and oversight of an Apache project. PMC members:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Have <strong>binding votes</strong> on project releases and technical 
decisions</li>
+<li><strong>Nominate and vote on</strong> new committers and PMC members 
according to the <a href="https://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html";>ASF 
voting process</a></li>
+<li>Provide <strong>oversight</strong> of the project on behalf of the ASF and 
its <a href="https://www.apache.org/foundation/board/";>Board of 
Directors</a></li>
+<li>Ensure the project follows ASF policies (<a 
href="https://www.apache.org/legal/";>legal</a>, <a 
href="https://www.apache.org/foundation/marks/";>branding</a>, <a 
href="https://infra.apache.org/";>infrastructure</a>)</li>
+<li>Report to the Board quarterly on the health of the project</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Being invited to the PMC is the project expressing trust that you will
+act as a responsible steward — someone who cares about the long-term
+health of the project and its community, not just their own contributions.</p>
+<h2 id="how-is-it-different-from-being-a-committer">How is it different from 
being a committer? <a class="headerlink" title="Permalink" 
href="#how-is-it-different-from-being-a-committer">&para;</a></h2>
+<p>As a committer, your primary focus is on <em>making contributions</em> — 
code,
+documentation, reviews, and user support. As a PMC member, your focus
+broadens to <em>project governance</em>:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>You shift from &ldquo;What can I build?&rdquo; to &ldquo;What should we 
build, and is it
+ready to ship?&rdquo;</li>
+<li>You take responsibility for the project&rsquo;s releases, ensuring they 
meet
+ASF standards.</li>
+<li>You actively look for contributors to mentor and eventually nominate.</li>
+<li>You ensure the community operates transparently and welcomes 
newcomers.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Many projects describe this as moving from <em>doing the work</em> to
+<em>stewarding the work</em>.</p>
+<h2 id="what-pmcs-look-for">What PMCs look for <a class="headerlink" 
title="Permalink" href="#what-pmcs-look-for">&para;</a></h2>
+<p>While every project is different, the following qualities appear
+consistently across ASF projects when evaluating candidates for PMC
+membership:</p>
+<h3 id="sustained-broad-contribution">Sustained, broad contribution <a 
class="headerlink" title="Permalink" 
href="#sustained-broad-contribution">&para;</a></h3>
+<p>PMC candidates have typically been active committers for a meaningful
+period of time. The form of contribution is not limited to code — it
+can include code review, user support, documentation, testing, release
+management, or community building.</p>
+<p>What matters is <em>breadth</em> and <em>consistency</em>. A PMC member 
should
+understand the project holistically, not just the corner they work in.</p>
+<h3 id="project-wide-perspective">Project-wide perspective <a 
class="headerlink" title="Permalink" 
href="#project-wide-perspective">&para;</a></h3>
+<p>PMC members need to think beyond their own features or their 
employer&rsquo;s
+priorities. They should demonstrate:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Concern for the overall health and direction of the project</li>
+<li>Interest in areas of the project outside their immediate work</li>
+<li>Willingness to review and discuss changes they didn&rsquo;t author</li>
+<li>Attention to the user community&rsquo;s needs, not just developer 
needs</li>
+</ul>
+<h3 id="release-process-familiarity">Release process familiarity <a 
class="headerlink" title="Permalink" 
href="#release-process-familiarity">&para;</a></h3>
+<p>PMC members cast binding votes on releases. Before being nominated, you
+should have:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Verified release candidates and voted (non-binding is fine initially)</li>
+<li>Understood the <a 
href="https://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html";>ASF release 
policy</a></li>
+<li>Familiarized yourself with your project&rsquo;s release process and 
tooling</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Several projects (for example, <a 
href="https://teaclave.apache.org/becoming-a-member";>Teaclave</a> and <a 
href="https://celeborn.apache.org/community/pmc/";>Celeborn</a>) explicitly list
+familiarity with the ASF release process as a PMC competency requirement.</p>
+<h3 id="community-building-and-mentorship">Community building and mentorship 
<a class="headerlink" title="Permalink" 
href="#community-building-and-mentorship">&para;</a></h3>
+<p>PMC members are expected to grow the community. This means:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>Helping newer contributors find their way</li>
+<li>Being active, courteous, and respectful on mailing lists and in 
reviews</li>
+<li>Celebrating others&rsquo; contributions</li>
+<li>Actively looking for people who might become committers</li>
+<li>Guiding discussions diplomatically, even in disagreement</li>
+</ul>
+<p>As the <a 
href="https://apisix.apache.org/docs/general/committer-guide/";>APISIX 
community</a> puts it: &ldquo;We value the community more than the
+code. A strong and healthy community will be respectful and a fun and
+rewarding place.&rdquo;</p>
+<h3 id="governance-awareness">Governance awareness <a class="headerlink" 
title="Permalink" href="#governance-awareness">&para;</a></h3>
+<p>PMC members should be familiar with how the ASF operates:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>The <a href="https://www.apache.org/theapacheway/";>Apache Way</a></li>
+<li>How PMC decisions are made (consensus voting, lazy consensus, vetoes)</li>
+<li>The role of the private@ mailing list (personnel matters and security 
disclosures only — substantive discussion belongs on dev@)</li>
+<li>The relationship between the PMC and the ASF Board</li>
+<li>Branding, legal, and infrastructure requirements</li>
+</ul>
+<h3 id="independence-of-judgment">Independence of judgment <a 
class="headerlink" title="Permalink" 
href="#independence-of-judgment">&para;</a></h3>
+<p>PMC members are expected to act as individuals, making decisions in the
+best interest of the project — not on behalf of their employer. The ASF
+Board has <a 
href="https://www.apache.org/foundation/governance/pmcs.html";>stated 
clearly</a> that PMCs must &ldquo;operate independently of outside
+commercial influence.&rdquo;</p>
+<h2 id="the-process">The process <a class="headerlink" title="Permalink" 
href="#the-process">&para;</a></h2>
+<p>The process for adding a PMC member is handled privately by the existing
+PMC, and varies slightly by project, but generally follows these steps:</p>
+<ol>
+<li><strong>Discussion</strong> — A PMC member proposes the candidate on the 
private@
+mailing list, citing specific contributions and behaviors.</li>
+<li><strong>Vote</strong> — If discussion is positive, a formal [VOTE] thread 
is
+opened. It runs for at least 72 hours (some projects use one week),
+requiring at least <a href="https://www.apache.org/foundation/voting.html";>3 
binding +1 votes and no vetoes</a>.</li>
+<li><strong>Board notification</strong> — Unlike adding a committer, <a 
href="https://community.apache.org/pmc/adding-pmc-members.html";>new PMC members
+require notification to the ASF Board ([email protected]). The Board
+has 72 hours to raise objections</a> (rare in practice).</li>
+<li><strong>Invitation</strong> — The candidate is invited privately and may 
accept or
+decline.</li>
+<li><strong>Announcement</strong> — Once accepted, the new PMC member is 
announced on
+the project&rsquo;s dev@ list.</li>
+</ol>
+<p>You cannot nominate yourself. The existing PMC decides when a committer
+is ready for this responsibility.</p>
+<h2 id="what-you-can-do-now">What you can do now <a class="headerlink" 
title="Permalink" href="#what-you-can-do-now">&para;</a></h2>
+<p>If you&rsquo;re a committer who aspires to PMC membership, here are concrete
+actions:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><strong>Verify release candidates</strong> — Download RCs, check 
signatures, run
+tests, and vote on the dev@ list (mark your vote as non-binding). This
+is the single best way to demonstrate release readiness.</li>
+<li><strong>Review PRs beyond your area</strong> — Show that you care about 
the whole
+project, not just your slice of it.</li>
+<li><strong>Participate in design discussions</strong> — Contribute thoughtful 
opinions
+on the project&rsquo;s direction, roadmap, and architecture.</li>
+<li><strong>Mentor newcomers</strong> — Help first-time contributors get their 
PRs
+merged. Answer their questions patiently. Point them to documentation.</li>
+<li><strong>Tend to project health</strong> — Address old tickets, stale PRs, 
broken
+CI, outdated docs. This is thankless work that signals ownership.</li>
+<li><strong>Understand governance</strong> — Read your project&rsquo;s bylaws. 
Read the
+<a href="https://www.apache.org/foundation/governance/";>ASF governance 
documentation</a>.
+Understand how decisions are made.</li>
+<li><strong>Think long-term</strong> — Ask yourself: &ldquo;If I moved on 
tomorrow, would
+this project be healthier because of my time here?&rdquo; That&rsquo;s the
+mindset of a PMC member.</li>
+<li>Don&rsquo;t wait for an invitation. <strong>Start showing 
ownership</strong> today.</li>
+</ul>
+<h2 id="a-note-on-timelines">A note on timelines <a class="headerlink" 
title="Permalink" href="#a-note-on-timelines">&para;</a></h2>
+<p>There is no fixed timeline. Some projects add committers to the PMC
+simultaneously (contributor → committer + PMC member). Others maintain a
+clear separation where committers prove themselves over months or years
+before being considered.</p>
+<p>Don&rsquo;t focus on the clock. Focus on demonstrating the qualities above.
+When it becomes obvious to the PMC that you belong, the invitation will
+come.</p>
