Not to go down a rat hole but I think that clarifying the
affiliations needs some refinement. On Apache Geronimo we have a few
committers that work for IBM but their participation is not part of
their day job. Would the committer in question for this situation
state that they are independent? I'm looking for clarification as I
expect that this same situation may exist for other incubator
projects and like Matthieu I would be concerned about creating a set
of hard rules where what I think we're looking for is project
independence based on individual merit and contribution.

Do we have a solid process for checking this?
I'm not sure we do - each project's status page (like [1] for example)
contains the "Are there three or more independent committers?"
question, but unless I'm missing something we don't have a defined way
of checking this.
The simplest way to fix this might be to include, in the graduation
vote requests, the list of active committers and affiliations, so that
people can check it if they want.
