Hi Ben, I saw the report. A couple of comments:
- Its best to get a report reviewed on the dev list so others are agreeing to it. Its not clear to me that the report filed was reviewed by others, or even that mentors are aware it needs to be signed off. - Regarding the addition of the committer, I would recommend keeping it on private. I'll reply on your private list with some more comments on this area since it is sensitive to people.
