I assume this is PMC members only, but as you're posting this on the dev list I guess its open for anyone to give their 2 cents.
Bill is active on the user list and answers alot of questions - thats a big plus in my book and shows he knows what hes talking about. Like Rob and David though, I haven't seen any patches from Bill and it seems strange to give someone "committ" privledge that has never made a submission. I have no personal objection to Bill, but if anyone is keen to become a committer and work on Struts then in my thinking a minimum requirement would be that they had submitted a patch to show that and also provide an example of their work. Wouldn't it be better to encourage him to get involved first and then if he does that bring him in as a committer?
