The comment on the change is:
The Commons Sandbox is open to any ASF committer, not just Jakarta committers.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  The sandbox is a space provided by Jakarta for the development of 
experimental code by existing committers. It is divided into components. 
  
- Any Jakarta committer (not just commons committers) has the right ask for 
karma (commit access) and have it granted. The right place to ask is on the 
commons-dev mailing list.
+ Any ASF committer (not just Jakarta Commons committers) has the right ask for 
karma (commit access) and have it granted. The right place to ask is on the 
commons-dev mailing list.
  
  Components cannot be released from the sandbox. This means no binaries posted 
anywere on the apache site as "0.x" releases, as this implies that Apache 
supports the released code. Users of sandbox code are expected to extract the 
latest source from the source code repository and build the code themselves.
  
- Commit access to the sandbox is unfortunately '''not''' available to people 
who are not existing Jakarta committers, no matter how good their idea. Such 
projects are generally encouraged to start somewhere like sourceforge.net. Once 
a solid community has been established and existing projects are using the 
component, it may be possible to integrate the project direct into commons if 
the project developers feel that is appropriate, and the commons community 
feels the component is a good fit with commons goals.
