No, not at all, you cannot be an *INITIAL* committer if you're not part of it from the very beginning. > The ones that have signed the iCLA can simply fully work already.

Having "fake" committers/supporters that only exist on paper is doing big harm (in perception, reputation of the whole project). ciao Christian
