Yes, I gave them that advice. It seemed rather pointless to vote someone in as a committer, just so that they could get an Apache ID, just so that they could be could be included in the graduation resolution. And then to have to repeat the vote for the graduation resolution because the email address has changed. Is it possible to give someone an Apache id even if though are not a committer or PMC member of any project? Maybe that would solve some of the tooling issues. Julian
