I don't see how being an ASF committer would make you special as an initial committer of an incubating project? IMHO we should allow everyone who is actively involved with the codebase to follow the code as a committer within the incubating project. We could (or should) better define what that "actively involved" means (based on ASF-like merit rules) and police that definition so people won't use the incubator proposals as shortcuts for committership. Making existing ASF committership a part of that entry criteria (even as a special bonus) sounds wrong to me.
