Thanks for the votes
Votes to commit since Warren proposed his 3.3.2 release, 10 days ago:
Henrik Krohns 15
Kevin A. McGrail 13
Mark Martinec 7
AXB (Alex Broens?) 1
While things like finding problems, creating the fixes and committing
them are in some ways more important, this project seems to be seriously
bottlenecking on these votes for commits, so thanks for taking the time.
That leaves 15 people I didn't find votes from in that period who are
listed as PMC members or active committers. I know some of these did other
important things, and I'm sure some have great reasons they didn't have
time to vote (not sarcasm).
PMC:
Theo Van Dinter
Duncan Findlay
Matt Kettler
Sidney Markowitz
Justin Mason
Daryl C. W. O'Shea
Michael Parker
Daniel Quinlan
Dale 'Doc' Schneider
Malte S. Stretz
Committers:
Tony Finch
Steve Freegard
John Hardin
Adam Katz
Warren Togami
And it looks like Henrik Krohns needs to be added to the committers list in
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/spamassassin/trunk/CREDITS?root=Apache-SVN&view=markup
It still seems like releases from trunk would be a great way to avoid this
voting bottleneck.

CLA doesn't give you a vote but it helps us apply patches that are
non-trivial.

Not sure if the CLA status is equivalent to that of a committer but I
submitted the CLA quite a while ago but Bugzilla still doesn’t remark (see
6376 and comments). That would at least cause the Windows patches I proposed
to require only two votes.

Ah, ok. I will do so. I hadn't read that bit.

Please forgive me for replying to the list, but I think this is important
enough:
"If you don't understand the workings of the code you're voting on, don't
worry about it too much. Do your best, and if all else fails, vote on the
structural aspects of the patch, and its code quality. It's not expected
that every committer knows how all of SpamAssassin works -- but it is
important that R-T-C has enough people voting!"
