What do you mean with 'them'? The cvs-write-rights or the voting-rights? Cvs
I could agree.

IMO it shouldn't matter a lot in how much you contributed to the community.
A commitor should know enough about MMBase to make decisions which will
improve it. Contributing to the community is one of the ways to proof that
you know MMBase. Ronald knows easily 10 times as much of MMBase then I did
at the moment I became a commitor. I became a commitor when I worked on a
project at the VPRO. I knew MMBase only from a few months at the VPRO and a
'small' project at Vodafone.
Ronald has worked on many projects with MMBase this year and has seen the
'mess' he will step into. Most of his mmbase work was to adapt MMBase to let
it meet the customer requirements. I am confident that he knows enough to
get the voting-rights. As a committor you have to get more involved and
share your knowledge. I have no doubts that he will.
