I agree in general -- the bar for commit should not be too high at the moment, but it should be a sliding scale over time as the project matures further so that the bar is higher. Learning, practicing and embodying The Apache Way is the ultimate goal of ASF incubation, so I highly recommend considering the community participation aspect of a potential committer. Utilizing The Apache Way is the most important aspect to creating a healthy project and community over time.
I have learned from experience that the PPMC should be carefully chosen and the traditional ASF model of roles that Von mentioned is the best way to start. E.g., a contributor might become a committer if s/he demonstrates the right stuff, a committer might become a PMC member if s/he demonstrates the right stuff. But while we are just beginning, I do not recommend immediately adopting the model where committer automatically equals PMC member. Changing this can be discussed at a later time when the project is more mature and is more comfortable acting as a cohesive group.
