I'd like to ask for a vote for committer status for two people who are 
contributing a great deal to Muse and having a big effect on its adoption.

Joel Hawkins has been working on the OSGi/Eclipse support for Muse for 
three months now; he started before the 2.0 code was even in the build, 
taking the disparate bundles from JIRA and learning how to piece them 
together on his own. He's studied the code and the programming model and 
has provided a lot of feedback, both generally and with regards to OSGi 
support. Joel is heading up the Eclipse Corona project[1] and using Muse 
as part of that work, while also being a great ambassador to other Eclipse 
projects that relate to systems management. The items that he is in charge 
of completing for M2[2] are things that he is an expert in, and I believe 
that given his technical diligence and enthusiastic support, he should be 
trusted to build, maintain, and fix them.

Andrew Eberbach has been working on a tooling package for server and 
client-side code generation. This WSDL2Java-like tool will be a major 
component for Muse because without it, our users aren't going to get very 
far! Andrew has been diligent in creating complete design documentation, 
as well as an initial cut of the features[3]. I haven't even gotten the 
code in /trunk yet and he's already submitting updates to the code and 
patches to other code already in /trunk; it's clear that he is making 
quick progress on this and, with the help of other WSDL2Java contributors, 
will add a lot of value to 2.0.0. The last sentence about Joel applies 
equally to Andrew.

Please cast your votes a.s.a.p. Here is my +1 for both Joel and Andrew.

Thanks,
Dan
