Something came up as we prepare DataFu for graduation. We haven't documented the process of nominating and approving new committers. From the thread with Matt Hayes:
> So far the process has been that I start a discussion in the private list > when I think someone has made enough good contributions. If there's good > feedback we vote. Anyone in the PPMC can initiate this; we just haven't > documented it. A good example of a page that roughly works this way is here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FINERACT/Becoming+a+Committer What do folks think of using this as a template for our process? Any additions/edits people want?
