+
+Projects at Apache operate under a meritocracy, meaning those that the 
developers notice participating to a high extent will be invited to join the 
project as a committer.
+
+There are 4 steps you need to go through to become an eligible for 
consideration as a committer.
+
+* Politely and respectively answer questions on the Apache VCL dev and user 
lists. By answering questions on the community mailing lists, you show an 
interest in the community. Your answers provide a metric of how well you 
understand VCL and how the Apache VCL community works.
+
+* Sign an Individual Contributor License Agreement (ICLA)
+To contribute any code or documentation, you must have an ICLA on file with 
the Apache Software Foundation. More information about the ICLA is available on 
the licenses page. Once you have done this, you should express interest on the 
vcl-dev list that you are interested in becoming a committer.
+
+* [1] Contribute non-trivial code by attaching patches to JIRA issues
+Before being granted commit access to the code respository, you need to 
demonstrate some level of understanding of the code and some level of coding 
proficiency. This is done by contributing patches to JIRA issues. We realize 
"non-trivial" is a subjective term, but simple one-liner patches don't allow 
you to be evaluated at all. (Don't worry we need more committers; so we're not 
strict!)
+
+* Be voted in as a new committer on the vcl-private list
+There is a private VCL list for members of the Project Management Committee 
(PMC) to discuss whether or not someone should be given the rights of a 
committer. A formal vote must happen on this list for you to be accepted as a 
committer.
+Once you have been accepted, your next step is to start contributing stuff!
+
+[1] If you only want to contribute documentation, you can skip step #3. 
However, if you later want to start contributing code, you will still need to 
go through step #3 and have a new vote in step #4 before being granted commit 
access to the code repository
