[is the rule that a project just needs 3 independent committers, or is there an additional rule that no more than 50% of the committers must be part of a single company?]
IIRC that 50% rule applies, but IANAL. Roy, Nicola?
I have no idea where that 50% stuff came from. The goal of having at least three independent members of the project PMC (*committers* has no decison-making role in the foundation, even when committers == PMC) is to make sure someone is able to veto stuff that would get us in trouble. 50% would be nice, but not necessary unless we are talking about the ASF board.
I don't know if this should even apply to code that is being inserted into an existing project.
