Commits aren't the only sign of community. They also aren't the only sustaining thing you need. You need: * VOTEs * discussion emails * JIRA threads * release managers * documentation writers, etc. For the above: I've seen Peter, David, Nathan, Joe (S.) and a host of other folks contribute. > >> You guys are ready for prime time.

And committers != PMC != community. The VOTE is to decide on whether or not Lucy has: * elected new (P)PMC members * shown that it can govern itself * made releases * vetted its licenses * operated in the Apache way I'd say it has.
