Hi folks, I wanted to bring up this discussion. It may have already been discussed, but I couldn't find a record of it in a brief search.
Currently all committers are also PPMC members, but if/when we go about adding contributors, do we want to make a distinction between committers and PPMC members? Many large projects do make a distinction; it allows them to give commit access easier. For a podling the only real addition you get by being a PPMC member is being added to the private list and having a say on new committers/PPMC members. Once you graduate you get binding votes on releases, as well as more certain control over the direction of the project. This project is relatively small in terms of numbers of committers at this point, so I'd tend to lean towards committers being PPMC members by default. Thoughts, comments, flames? --David
