Sorry for the lack of reply Jeff. All my free time has been gobbled up
by packing the house up to move. I'll try to get back on this soon;
but mostly I need to check the foundation side of things to see if the
grant has been recorded.

The ICLA is for committership. I think another email of yours asked
how you would become a committer; the easiest answer is:  act like a
committer. If you're voting on issues, getting involved in discussions
and sending in patches, it's rare for committership not to follow.
Basically, show commitment :)
