Hi all, Recently, I have been discussing with some people from the Hive PMC about the requirements to invite someone to become a Hive committer. For those who are not aware there is a page in the wiki which outlines the process [1].
Going over the list of contributors, we have noticed that there are various very promising candidates with solid code contributions and technical skills. One area that many people fall short and thus don't receive an invitation is reviews. PRs in Hive require at least one +1 from a committer before getting merged thus Hive committers should be active in doing reviews. People who are interested and motivated to become committers should not neglect the reviewing process. Best, Stamatis [1] https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/BecomingACommitter
