I haven't really been following the whole discussion but I will list the way its normally done for apache projects. Step#1: Any committer can propose someone as a committer at any time. The proposing committer generally lists their contributions and why they should be made a committer. Step#2: Any current committer can vote on the new committer. see this page for more details on the process: http://incubator.apache.org/drafts/newcommitters.html see this page for details on voting: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/decisions.html
