Just to point out a few things here, first off there is no guideline that states a company affiliation should have anything to do with the decision on voting somebody as core. I have ABSOLUTELY NO concern about representation of company affiliation what so ever.

Quite frankly I wouldn't mind if there were 20 core members from HP, if they're all actively engaged and participating then that's great. I don't think there has been ANY incidence of folks exerting inappropriate influence based on their affiliated interest, and if there ever was I think it would be easy to identify and address.

As far as "don't need more" I don't agree with that either, if there are folks contributing and doing the work then there's no reason not to add them. Cinder IMO does NOT have an excess of reviewers by a very very long stretch.

The criteria here should be review consistency and quality as well as knowledge of the project, nothing more nothing less. If there's an objection to the individuals participation or contribution that's fine, but company affiliation should have no bearing.

+1 to Ollie from me.

+1 to John's points. If a company is colluding with other core members, from the same company, to do bad things within a project, it should become pretty obvious at some point and the project's community should take action. If someone is putting in an extra effort to provide quality code and reviews on a regular basis, then why wouldn't we want that person on the team? Besides, being a core member really just means that you are required to do reviews and help out with the community. You do get some gerrit privileges for reviews, but that's about it. I for one think that we absolutely can use more core members to help out with reviews during the milestone deadlines :)
