Erik,

You have been providing some very good patches and it is not being
ignored.  I was in a very similar state as you a few months ago.  The PPMC
did not ignore me.  Please keep your trust in the PPMC and continue doing
what you are doing.  People who consistently contribute and are active on
the mailing list will not go unnoticed.

I wish I could tell you that you need to provide 'X' number of patches to
be made a committer.  But it is not as simple as that.  The PPMC looks at
various other aspects such as the ability to follow rules, willingness to
follow agreed upon processes, etc. as well.  Please remember that  if/when
you become a committer, the same stringent scrutiny of potential committers
would be expected from you as well.

But, you did the right thing by asking your questions so that everyone who
wants to become a committer can understand the process a bit better as
well.  Thanks for your contributions so far, and I expect nothing less from
you in the future :-)

Regards,
Om
