How about we try this for the desktop community, and do a trial run to see how it works? I'd be happy to come up with a simple form for people to fill in similar to GNOME's - http://foundation.gnome.org/membership/application.php and get a few people from the community approving them? Given that we have 2 roles in the constitution currently, one for contributor and the other for core contributor, we need some way of dividing them. Anyone have any thoughts? Glynn
