Hi :)
Seems reasonable :)  There is something about the grammar of the last line that 
mildly irritates me.  Making it "I will ..." rather than using the contraction 
helps a little but there is something odd about "best-effort".  I'm sure there 
is a better word but i'm never able to remember it.  My memory is going, maybe 
that's what is irritating.  "Best-effort" is good enough.  It's certainly 
unambiguous enough and clear enough.
Regards from
Tom :)

If there are no objections by tonight, I'll also change the text on
the membership application page
(http://www.documentfoundation.org/foundation/application-for-tdf-community-membership/)

to read:

Bylaws and commitment

Please read the Foundation's Charter (its Bylaws and The Next Decade
Manifesto), and confirm that you support the principle of an
independent foundation.
You should make a best-effort commitment to at least six
(6) months activity within our projects.

I've read the Foundation's Bylaws and The Next Decade Manifesto, and
confirm that I support the principle of an independent foundation.*

I'll make a best-effort commitment to contribute to the projects of
TDF for at least six (6) months.* 

Cheers,
