It also helps avoid surprise if you understand a little bit about the culture of how Apache projects (including Struts) operate. An invaluable resource for this purpose is on the main Apache website: http://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html For example, all the committers to Struts (including me) started in the "user" category, and grew through the described roles to various levels of additional responsibility (as well as, in many cases, participation in other projects as well), after illustrating by their behavior that they buy in to these principles and behaviors. There is certainly room in the world for projects that work differently, where the bar to commit access is substantially lower. The struts.sf.net project, for example, has a very different approach. But, if that's what you are looking for, you are going to be frustrated if you only look here.
