The way I read it, the committer
nomination guildelines do not list any specific number of patches,
dev list posts, etc., that are required for a committer nomination. It
only specifies that contributors need to earn other committers' trust.
As far as I know CDT doesn't have any written guidelines on what
contributors have to do to earn commit rights and instead it has always
relied on the judgment of existing committers. Also, as long as I
remember, CDT community has been relatively open and welcoming of new
members and I believe that's been a big part of the project's success.
So in my judgment Patrick has met this historical standard of trust.
Patrick did not ask me to nominate him and I don't know his
intentions. I'm actually not even sure whether TI will give him
permission to be a committer. However, given that TI's product is CDT
based, and that they've been involved with it for at least the last 5
years, I assume that he will continue to be involved. Also, I've never
seen anyone before asking for a statement from the nominee so your
request is rather unusual, but it's up to him to answer.

Well you are saying you did it as a "reward"? I don't think it is
right approach.
First of all lets not involve platform into this decision, because if
you think he has enough
contributions for the platform you should have nominated him for the platform.
Does he plan to be an active committer on cdt project? If he committed
7 patches over 5 years I won't call
it active... What is he planning on contributing to cdt?
Does he actively participate in cdt dev list? (I have not even herd of
him at all before cdt summit...)
Does he ask you to nominate him or it was your idea? Can I hear from
him actually?

I feel I should apologize here, because I sort of "winged" this nomination
and I didn't take the appropriate amount of time to explain my motivation to
nominate Patrick. Unlike most committer nomination, which are made for a
colleague, I have no vested interest in this nomination. I've simply found
that Patrick's bugs and patches have been very helpful to me and I hoped
that I could make it easier for him to continue to help out. Also,
especially after today's call where we put Mike Wilson on the spot over
platform commit rights, I thought it would be appropriate to recognize his
contributions which have come over the last 5 years (maybe more).
Cheers,

tools.cdt Committers,
This automatically generated message signals that Pawel Piech has
