It is not about how much time it takes to scan an ICLA and send it :).
He was not in the initial list of committers and as the [VOTE] has
been accepted and closed and the podling has started I am afraid that
he should gain credits to become a committer.
I know it might sound weird a little at the beginning, but it is not
only about committing code, it is more about understanding the rules
and way of Apache of doing OSS and hence comes these set of rules. And
I have to point that I am not talking about Michele Zuccala in
particular, I am talking in general.

So, IMO we should go the way of that they re-attach their patches with
the new migrated JIRA(s) and if they show the same interest and
commitment as they have shown before they will get committer rights
indeed, as long as all of this is managed by the rules defined and
managed by the Deft PPMC.
