Hello Jason,
I appreciate the work you and several of your compatriots have done. From my perspective it's moving in the right direction and I've seen you around in several places for several years (I think your the same person anyway).
I do know the etiquette for the apache group, though I don't subscribe to it for projects I have originated. I was trying to make the point that I was losing faith in the experience and competence of some developers who do have commit status, essentially saying "if someone with the the responsibility wont take responsibility, then let me take it".

How do I go about requesting commit status for this project?
It is bad etiquette to request committer status in OSS projects and generally looked dimly upon. The normal course of action is you contribute for a period of time and one of the existing committers will nominate you for commit status.
The last two core committers inducted were John and Trygve. These only happened recently and John has been contributing pretty much from the very start, he has contributed a great deal wrt user help and code. Trygve has also contributed for some time, understands maven2 from top-to-bottom, and contributed large chunks of non-trivial code for maven2.
I think you're the first person who has ever asked for commit status, so the answer is you don't request committer status, it will be offered when someone feels you've earned it.
