+## Propose an improvement or a new feature
+
+Our community is constantly looking for feedback to improve Apache Griffin. If 
you have an idea how to improve Griffin or have a new feature in mind that 
would be beneficial for Griffin users, please open an issue in Griffin’s 
JIRA. The improvement or new feature should be described in appropriate detail 
and include the scope and its requirements if possible.
+
+We recommend to first reach consensus with the community on whether a new 
feature is required and how to implement a new feature, before starting with 
the implementation.

+## How to become a committer
+
+Committers are community members that have write access to the project’s 
repositories, i.e., they can modify the code, documentation, and website by 
themselves and also accept other contributions.
+
+There is no strict protocol for becoming a committer. Candidates for new 
committers are typically people that are active contributors and community 
members.
+
+Being an active community member means participating on mailing list 
discussions, helping to answer questions, verifying release candidates, being 
respectful towards others, and following the meritocratic principles of 
community management. Since the “Apache Way” has a strong focus on the 
project community, this part is very important.
+
+Of course, contributing code and documentation to the project is important as 
well. A good way to start is contributing improvements, new features, or bug 
fixes. You need to show that you take responsibility for the code that you 
contribute, add tests and documentation, and help maintaining it.
+
+Candidates for new committers are suggested by current committers or PMC 
members, and voted upon by the PMC.
+
+If you would like to become a committer, you should engage with the community 
and start contributing to Apache Griffin in any of the above ways. You might 
also want to talk to other committers and ask for their advice and guidance.
