+Summary
+=======
+
+1) templates/committerVote.txt
+1a) request lazy consensus from IPMC
+2) templates/committerInvite.txt
+
+after they accept, then do:
+
+3) templates/committerAccept.txt ... the normal process for dev-to-pmc
+4) wait until we see that receipt of CLA is recorded
+5) template/committerCreate.txt
+5a) now wait until root says it is done
+5b) chair to enable their svn access
+6) template/committerDone.txt
+7 template/committerAnnounce.txt
+8) add them to the cloudstack-developers group in Jira.
+
+Discussion
+==========
+
+We do the vote on the private mailing list to enable a frank discussion.
+
+Start a separate Vote thread for each new person. This makes it much
+easier to review the mail archives.
+
+In most cases, we will be inviting people to go straight from developer
+to PPMC member. However, there may be extraordinary cases where we want
+limited work-related commit access. This will be resolved during the vote
+discussion. http://forrest.apache.org/guidelines.html#elect (yes, I know
+this is not the CloudStack project, we need to create our own guidelines)
+
+We need to be sure that they are committed people that we can work with.
+They will be our peers. We will have already observed that they are
+committed to the project and graceful toward users and other developers.
+
+Don't wait too long before proposing and don't be too hasty. There is a
+trade-off and something about timeliness. A point is reached where it
+becomes obvious that we should invite them. This encourages them and keeps
+them enthusiastic. If we leave it too long, then we risk them becoming
+disillusioned.
+
+On the PPMC list we can each say exactly what we feel about each person,
+with no holds barred. Keep the discussion concise. The praise part can
+be done later in public.
+
+See the end of this document for some guidelines to help you to assess a
+candidate.
+
+Let the Vote thread run for one week.
+A positive result is achieved by Consensus Approval
+http://forrest.apache.org/guidelines.html#approvals
+i.e. at least 3 +1 votes and no vetoes.
+Any veto must be accompanied by reasoning and be prepared to defend it.
+Other members can attempt to encourage them to change.
+
+New PPMC members can be either quiet or active as they choose. If we find
+that certain people lapse and don't ever contribute, then we can take steps
+to retire them.
+
+After a positive result, we give them a chance to decline in private.
+They can post a reply to the PPMC mailing list.
+
+After we reach a decision on the PPMC list, and after the steps above,
+we will announce it on the dev list. We can then each follow up with
+our praise in public.
+
+There are template emails for each stage of the process at ./templates/
+These may need tweaks for each case. Also remember that these templates
+are just a guide, especially the announcement one.
+
+Other notes about the process are at
+http://incubator.apache.org/guides/ppmc.html
+http://www.apache.org/dev/pmc.html#newcommitter
+
+
+
+------------------------------------------------------------------------
+Guidelines for assessing candidates
+-----------------------------------
+
+When voting, you need to make up your own mind, perhaps search mailing lists
+and Jira, etc. The following are some tips that we developed on the private@
+list. It seems that each time we discuss someone, then new ideas arise about
+what we should look for, e.g. private@ archives early July 2006.
+Also consider http://forrest.apache.org/committed.html
+
+0) Ability to work co-operatively with peers. Ability to be a mentor.
+- How do we evaluate? By the interactions they have through mail. By how
+they respond to criticism. By how they participate in decision-making process.
+1) Community - How do we evaluate? By the interactions they have through mail.
+2) Committment - How do we evaluate? By time, by sticking through tough
+issues, by helping on not-so-fun tasks as well.
+3) Personal skill/ability - How do we evaluate? A solid general understanding
+of CloudStack. Quality of discussion in mail. Patches easy to apply with only
+a cursory review.

+
+Welcome. Here are the next steps. After that we will make
+an announcement to the cloudstack-dev list.
+
+You need to send a Contributor License Agreement to the ASF.
+Normally you would send an Individual CLA. If you also make
+contributions done in work time or using work resources then
+see the Corporate CLA. Ask us if you have any issues.
+http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas
+
+You need to choose a preferred ASF user name and alternatives.
+In order to ensure it is available you can view a list of taken ids at
+http://www.apache.org/~jim/committers.html
+
+Please notify us when you have submitted the CLA and by what means
+you did so. This will enable us to monitor its progress.
+
+We will arrange for your Apache user account when the CLA has
+been recorded.
+
+After that is done, please make followup replies to the cloudstack-dev list.
+We generally discuss everything there and keep this cloudstack-private@ list
+for occasional matters which must be private.
+
+The developer section of the website describes the roles
+and provides other resources:
+http://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html
+http://www.apache.org/dev/
+
+The incubator also has some useful information for new committers
+in incubating projects:
+http://incubator.apache.org/guides/committer.html
+
+In the absence of our own guidelines document we are currently
+using those developed at Apache Forrest:
+http://forrest.apache.org/guidelines.html
+
+Yours,
+The Apache CloudStack PPMC

+
+Hello #####, the Apache CloudStack Podling Project Management Committee
+would like to invite you to become a CloudStack committer. We value
+your contributions and are aware that you are committed to the project.
+
+Being a committer enables you to more easily make changes and so
+not need to go via the patch submission process. This should
+enable you to be more productive.
+
+While this does not mean that you need to participate any more
+than you already do, it does tend to make one even more committed.
+Hence you will probably find that you spend more time here.
+
+Of course, you can decline and instead remain as a developer,
+contributing as you do now.
+
+This personal email is also providing a chance for you to decline
+in private. Either way, please let us know in reply only to the
+cloudstack-private@incubator.apache.org list. If you agree, then we will announce
+on the cloudstack-dev@ list after the account is established.
+
+Yours,
+The Apache CloudStack PPMC
