My expressed concern was to do with the length of the committer list. If you start with 14 committers, (and they all remain active) you won't be able to graduate until you reach at least 29 committers - so that there isn't a predominance from one organisation.
I've always understood the rule of thumb counted organizations represented, not committers. Since most votes permit a veto, having a majority of committers doesn't grant one control of a project. If there are 14 committers from one organization, then my interpretation of the rule of thumb is that we need to be at least two from two other organizations.
It is of course just a rule of thumb. 14 from one organization and only two from others indeed wouldn't smell right. But I don't believe that there's a hard-and-fast rule that 15 committers from other organizations must be added before it could graduate.
