When projects start in incubator, yes - anyone on the initial committer
list is given committer status on the incubating project. Because
Geronimo may/is sponsor/ing this as a subproject, when the incubator
project graduates, all committers become Geronimo committers.
You can see an example of this with ServiceMix (or was it ActiveMQ?)
All committers were added to Geronimo's ACL for SVN. I'm not sure why
because it hasn't graduated, but it's what is going to happen with this
and the other Geronimo-sponsored incubator podlings if they successfully
graduate.

Alan,
I do have a question about the initial committer list. Since I'm
relatively new to Apache my understanding was that commit was based on
previous work. Many of the names on the list are new to me so I have
not had an opportunity to work with them. Are all the suggested names
currently committers at Apache? If not, is this standard practice for
granting commit and does this mean they are granted commit to the
entrire Geronimo dev tree?
Thanks for the follow up.

Here is the incubation proposal

I'm interested in assisting with this. I was wrote the adapter code
that allowed IBM's WAS CE product to work with the IBM JDK ORB. This
required developing a pretty good understanding of how Geronimo hooks
into the ORB, as well as finding places where hidden assumptions about
ORB behavior created additional tie-ins to a single implementation.
Does anyone have any comments before we vote on it?
Should this also get sent to the incubator list or do we wait until
after the vote?
Alex Karasulu and I were talking about it and we both think that it
might be a good idea to shoot for making this a TLP. Thoughts?
Regards,
Alan
