I was under the impression that Magdalen is.  She claimed that we're telling 
"all succesful interns that they's not eligible".

There is no general answer.  Applications are handled on a case-by-case basis.
The number of objections to the decision of the membership committee I know of 
is exactly 0.
Of course, that number is biased towards the lower end as people might not
have applied in first case.  And it's hard to say how many people have not 
applied.

We're quite transparent (that doesn't mean that there is no room for 
improvement, though).  We have a list of approved 
applicants here: https://wiki.gnome.org/MembershipCommittee/ApprovedMembers
With the RT number you can find the relevant application and all its email, 
because it is publicly archived.  Given that some of you say they don't know 
what contributions will give you a membership, I guess we need to make those 
resources of information better known.

I'll try my best.

Cheers,
