I put myself forward as a committer. I believe that I have worked on a fair amount of code in the implementation of the JavaMail codebase, and have also contributed to the community throughout postings to this newsgroup not only on JavaMail but on a variety of other topics as well.

I have already signed and faxed the ASF2 contribution form, and in the past others have suggested that I may be one of the people considered for committer access. In fact, it has already been proposed once but only received a +1 and a +0.

Can one of the committers propose me as a committer?

Thanks,

alex.

So, a new process; if you are interested in becoming a committer, and have submitted enough code/contributions/become a member of the community, simply reply to this message title. Please do not reply to this same message title if you are not interested in becoming a committer, or are not a committer replying.

Once you've announced your intent, can a committer then post a reply to this, officially proposing a vote for that person. This will kick-start the normal ASF processes which I'm sure we'd all want to follow anyway.

To make it clearer, I suggest that message titles are as follows:

Who wants to be a committer? <- this message
Re: Who wants to be a commiter? Alex Blewitt <- people who are interested in nominating themselves
[Vote] Re: Who wants to be a committer? Alex Blewitt <- a committer will have to officially launch the voting process off
Re: [Vote] Re: Who wants to be a committer? Alex Blewitt <- responses from other people (committers have the only binding votes, but support from the community is also a good indication)
