So my proposal is that any ASF committer who wishes to become a commons committer just needs to make that request here on the commons-dev mailing list and they will granted karma for both commons proper and commons sandbox. Expectation is of course that ASF committers joining the commons will "behave" (http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-commons/JakartaCommonsEtiquette).
Obviously I'm +1 on making it easier. As far as behaving - the solution is that the quiet majority have to step up and yell if someone is being a rude ****. We've a bit of a technical issue on it; it's quite easy to show up and if a component is in a lull, to charge in and make sweeping changes. The release is a point where we can nip that in the bud, but that's a long time after lots of work. So I think something I would be looking for when someone wants to hop in is that there is an active commons committer managing the component they're about to commit to. Other than that, I believe in as open a door as possible.
