I must admit I didn't either at the time. From memory, Sim suggested
earlier that we should treat committer and PMC member status separately,
I think he was right.
Perhaps in future when we offer someone committer status, we should
point them to the relevant PMC document and ask them if they'd like to
be a PMC member also.
It is my understanding that a committer doesn't have to be a PMC member,
but a PMC member must be a committer, is that correct?

Can you please reply to this page when you've done so. Making sure
we've all read it is needs to form part of our next board report.
