Within the OpenSolaris community, we have some arbitrary

leader are amongst these.
I'd like to propose that how "contributor" status is designated
such that it is granted to anyone and everyone that is in a
position to do a putback or commit to the OpenSolaris
code base.
This would mean anyone who has signed the Sun Contributor Agreement
or is an employee of a company that has (ie. Sun).
I'm glad you brought this up. I'm working on establishing test
resources on opensolaris.org (ie. self-service testing and test farm),
and need a way to limit who gets access, since I won't be able to
support everyone with an OpenSolaris user name.
I'm targeting non-Sun code contributors (ie. OpenSolaris
users that can putback to the OpenSolaris code base and
don't work for Sun). Your redefinition points things in the
right direction for this. Alternatively, since "Contributor" is
already defined. How about "Code Contributor"?
No. This just adds to confusion -
"Are you a contributor?"
"No, I'm a code contributor."
"Oh."
I don't see what the problem is is making everyone who
is party to the Contributor Agreement a "contributor"
and giving them access.
