Mainly for clarity (as I may have missed such a summary) - Is there a summary that exists (or perhaps we could reply here) that outlines:
What's the process within the zeppelin project to add additional Committers and/or PMC members? Who selects the people for these roles, and is there diversity beyond one affiliation/company in terms of who is selecting additional committers or PMC members? Who are all the current PMC members and affiliations? Who are all the committers and affiliations? How would we know if you desire more members? I found this: http://people.apache.org/committers-by-project.html#incubator Although - it's one large list with several incubator projects vs zeppelin alone.
