One thing I'd like to add to it is that different contributors
contribute differently. Some people contribute very often, some less
frequently.
I think during this latest year we have not had that many new
contributors coming in with most of the new contributors starting
helping during the last few months. A 1 year gap is not reflecting the
real picture of how the CXF contributions are done.
We have a new committer being in the process of joining the team right
now whose contributions were spread over a fairly long period of time,
we've had a number of new contributors coming in recently, and we do
hope the CXF team will keep growing.
I believe CXF PMC has always been looking for an opportunity to grow the
team, both the PMC and committers teams, this is how I see as an
individual PMC team member.

And it did not take everyone 1 year to become a committer anyway

So, you're thinking its normal for a project to add a committer once per
year? Looking at the archives, last new committer was added almost 1
year
ago (just shy of two weeks).

Hi Andi
Please be assured your contributions have been noticed.
FYI, it usually takes longer to become a CXF committer, as far as I'm
aware it has taken awhile for all the contributors who joined the team
in the last few years to become the committers, including some of your
colleagues. I think it took me a while to become the one too :-) and it
does not depend if the candidates for ex work for the same company
as me
(or other PMC member) or not...
Some contributors take on major projects, some do various fixes, but I
believe CXF PMC is always being recognizing contributors who have been
helping CXF.
As far as JAX-RS 2.1 is concerned the initial draft has been mostly
implemented (SSE Server, Rx Client API - some improvements might
need to
go there), and Andriy Redko is investigating the initial NIO
implementation. I guess we will see more requirements in 2017.
Other than that - have a look please at other CXF JAX-RS or non JAX-RS
issues whenever you get a chance, if you have some opinion on whatever
issues the users are raising, consider contributing, etc.
IMHO you are a quality contributor - so I'm looking forward to you
becoming a CXF committer.
Thanks, Sergey

Hi All,
I would like to become a committer on CXF. Hopefully over the past
few
months I've earned some karma with some of the performance and
CTS-related
fixes - and I'm hoping to contribute more - especially in the JAX-RS
2.1
space.
If I'm not quite there as far as contributions, is there anything
specific
that I could do to help get me to be a committer?
Thanks in advance for your consideration,
Andy
