The subject is close enough. It doesn't say "become XXX committer". Yeah "svn access" might have been better. > http://apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html#roles > > "committer is a developer that was given write access to the code > repository and has a signed Contributor License Agreement (CLA) on > file.

To become committers proper we would go there, participate on their mailing lists, help users, be committed to the project, etc. As i said earlier in this thread, this is not the normal practise. It is a new experiment between the Cocoon-based projects. -David
