 <p>When the vote resut is positive, you will be asked for some information to setup
 your committer status.
 <br> (<a href="http://incubator.apache.org/guides/participation.html">see here for more information</a>)</p>
+<h3 id="i_was_invitedvoted_as_committer_so_whats_next">I was invited/voted as committer, so whats next?</h3>
+<p>The following is a brief summary of what to expect as committer:</p>
+<ol>
+<li>
+<p>After your (Invividual Contributor Lisence Agreement (<a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/icla.txt">iCLA</a>) has been
+    received and registered, you will be invited to specify one or more preferred
+    Apache user names.
+    <strong>Important</strong>: The e-mail address you provide in your iCLA will be used for the
+    following communications with you.</p>
+<p>Please note that there is also a <a href="http://www.apache.org/licenses/cla-corporate.txt">Corporate Contributor Lisence Agreement
+(CCLA)</a> if you want/have to commit in the name of a company or organization.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Choose one or more User Names that would be acceptable to you. These are short
+    names or abbriviations that will be used for a Unix account login.</p>
+<p>Example:
+Your name is "John Doe", so an ID cound be "johnd" or "jdoe". <a href="http://people.apache.org/committer-index.html">Here you can see
+if the ID is still free</a> or already given to another committer.</p>
+<p>Supply all other information that is requested. Return the ID requests as
+instructed.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>When your choices are returned, the first request that does not conflict with
+    an already-issued ID will be used to generate an Apache ID. Write them in
+    the order you would like to have, so the first one is the most wanted.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>You will receive an e-mail, from "root@apache.org", that confirms the Apache
+    user name for you and also provides you with an initial password. There are also
+    instructions for changing your password. Please be patient as this mail can take
+    some days.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>The ID will also be your Apache e-mail address. Note that the account will be
+    set up to forward all received mails to the e-mail address you supplied on your
+    ICLA. It is not a normal mail account but just for forwarding. After you have
+    the account there is also a way to associate your Apache e-mail address with
+    additional e-mail addresses that you have. (ToDo: Add a link to a how-to)</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>The ID and password will allow you to check in changes and new additions on the
+    Apache SVN repository for the OpenOffice.org incubator repository. The ability
+    to check in material on the SVN repository is important for more than code. All
+    committers will have an use for it.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>The ID and password will allow you to login to a personal Unix account on the
+    Apache server "people.apache.org". You can produce a personal website at this
+    account as well as use it as a regular Unix (specifically, FreeBSD) account. You
+    do not need to be able to use this account. You may find it useful as you become
+    more accomplished as a committer.<br />
+</p>
+</li>

 <h3 id="how_and_when_to_vote">How and when to vote?</h3>
 <p>Voting is done when a formal decision has to be made or due to legal reasons, e.g.,
 to vote in new members as committers. In any case avoid voting as the normal way is
