This is actually following the ASF process. Until a committer nominates it, then it isn't a part of the process, but we can use the message title to identify people who are interested in becoming commiters.

So it's the ASF process, nothing more, nothing less. The only thing I proposed is building a list of interested people in such a way that those things can be tracked.

To avoid cluttering this thread with cruft, please change the subject of the message so that we can track that thread separately.

Thanks,

Alex.

Guys, is this even up for debate? This is an Apache project and I would
think must follow the Apache rules. I think that some of the more senior
Apache members were very clear on this.

Subject: Who wants to be a committer?


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)

Alex.
