Ross, How can it be that 'Contributor' is not an official 'hat'-definition in the (explanatory) pages of the ASF? While so much importance is placed on correct usage of terminology in projects and elsewhere, based on those pages.
Shouldn't the document http://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html#roles be amended (with respect to definitons 'User' and 'Developer) in such a way that it reflects that?
