You are certainly right and I agree with your point. But this should not be a
way for committers to escape their responsabilities.
I think the truth is in the middle. I think that that some committers are not
doing their (volunteers) job for too long. I see that
few contributors are doing much than most committers. Some contributions are
really good and fix neglected issues being there for
long. So this situation put the burden on the shoulders of few committers. Some
begin to loose the faith (ie less activity) and if
this situation continues the project will loose its momentum. Also this
situation does not help preventing what you are
stigmatizing...
Being a committer means some responsability.

It's easy to check http://svnsearch.org/svnsearch/repos/ASF/search?path=%2Fofbiz
I don't think the list of committers
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OFBADMIN/Apache+OFBiz+PMC+Members+and+Committers
is
in stone...
I want to remind here that it's the PMC responsability to propose active and
effective contributors to become committers.
Note that I'm only concerned by the project good health, nothing else.

Interesting report... but there are chances that the way I read it is different
from yours: this report tells me that we have
introduced too many bugs or bad designs in the system and that a more careful
commit strategy with shared reviews and discussions
about best ways to fix things (rather than accepting the patches as they are
contributed) would decrease, in the medium term, the
distance.
We also need to mark as won't fix several tickets that are either incomplete or
address too specific use cases (without really
improving the system as a whole).

Last big effort was done by Jacopo in Dec., since then it keeps increasing...
