The site is down, but here's my personal recollection of how committers are added:

1. A PMC member starts discussion with on project PMC list (or incubator-general for incubating projects). One week should be allowed for discussion of the nomination.

2. The nominator should then call a vote with a VOTE message on the same mailing list. One week should be allowed for votes. At least three +1 votes and no -1 votes are required.

3. The prospective committer should file an ICLA. Their employer should file a CCLA if they will be employed to work on Apache projects and their employer does not already specifically permit that (and most employment agreements specifically forbid this sort of thing).

4. Once the CLA(s) are on file, the nominator should send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] asking for an account to be created. The message should provide a desired username, forwarding email address and cite the vote in the mailing list archives.

5. Once the account is created, the nominator should email the chair of the project or its PMC, asking that Subversion access be given.

That's my take. I think Jeff is at 4, although the voting was rather casual (no VOTE-subject messages). I am happy to give Jeff Subversion access (5), but I cannot do that until he has an account (4) and I know the name of that account.

I believe the next step is for you to be added to those with write rights on that svn tree. I'm not sure who's in charge of that particular piece.... if it is under Lucene then Doug can do it, otherwise the incubator PMC can do it somehow.
