Yes, it's misleading. The page "How to Participate" says to put "Need vote" there, but someone from Apache changed it to "Interested". Now we have a mix, but none of the values is really useful (apart from committers of course). I like the Emilian's idea to replace it with the suggested values.

This goes against my understanding of the current Apache process where people should first get involved and show contributions before being considered externally for a vote. So I suggest we either remove that column or replace it with 'Apache Hat' or something where we could use: 'Mentor / commiter / (p)pmc member / contributor / user" or similar. --emi
