Sebb commented on COMDEV-326:
-----------------------------
Furthermore, the page does not make clear that an invite to become a PMC member
is conditional on acceptance by the board.
If the invite is sent before the NOTICE period has elapsed, the invite should
make it clear that it subject to approval by the board.
Generally it's simpler to delay sending any PMC invitation until after the
NOTICE period.

> Project: Community Development
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Website
> Environment:
> https://community.apache.org/newcommitter.html#committer-invite-template
> Reporter: Sebb
> Priority: Major
>
> The committer invite template [1] is not very clear on the distinction
> between an invitation as a committer, and invitation as a committer + PMC
> member.
> In particular, it describes the role of the committer, but largely ignores
> the PMC role.
> As a result, I have seen at least one acceptance reply that said "I accept to
> become a committer" [2] - leaving unstated whether or not they agree to
> become a PMC member.
> I think any template needs to make very clear what is involved in the PMC
> role, and also that the invitee has 3 choices:
> - decline both invites
> - accept the committer invite and decline the PMC invite
> - accept both committer invite and PMC invite
