Doug - that's a bit of an unconventional way to get commit privileges
to an Apache project. George really should propose you, and Digy
(though separately) as committers, and then there is a vote.
For the record, I'm +1 on you both joining this project as committers
though.
George - at your discretion, please make an official VOTE proposal for
each. I guess it's just George and I with binding votes here, but
let's do it the usual way for posterity :)

George,
I am writing to request that Digy and I are made committers as soon as
possible. It is a practical matter. Maintaining a separate codebase
locally and adding and removing patches is time-consuming and error-
prone
when dealing with many deltas. Especially, for myself, considering
that I
have begun to port the changes from the 2.3.2 release as well - it's a
juggling act. I bet that we each have a different version of the
code on
our local machines. SVN access will simplify this process, and we
will all
be assured of working on the latest code at any given time. Your
role as
gatekeeper will still apply, and any unwarranted commits may simply be
rolled back.
Thanks,
Doug
