[jira] [Created] (COMDEV-326) Committer invite template omits PMC role details

Sebb created COMDEV-326:

             Summary: Committer invite template omits PMC role details
                 Key: COMDEV-326
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMDEV-326
             Project: Community Development
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: https://community.apache.org/newcommitter.html#committer-invite-template
            Reporter: Sebb


The committer invite template [1] is not very clear on the distinction between an invitation as a committer, and invitation as a committer + PMC member.

In particular, it describes the role of the committer, but largely ignores the PMC role.

As a result, I have seen at least one acceptance reply that said "I accept to become a committer" [2] - leaving unstated whether or not they agree to become a PMC member.

I think any template needs to make very clear what is involved in the PMC role, and also that the invitee has 3 choices:
- decline both invites
- accept the committer invite and decline the PMC invite
- accept both committer invite and PMC invite
