Hey Jakob,

This was a tough one-- you know that I've been talking about Crunch
w/Joe Adler for a few weeks now, and I personally am really looking
forward to working with you guys. That said, the team did feel
strongly about keeping the initial committers to people who had
already added major pieces of functionality to Crunch, and adding
Vinod was about his expertise on the MR2 internals, which we think
will be critical to Crunch's success. We are going to put the Crunch
proposal up for a vote with the current team in place.
We are, of course, very eager to grow the list of committers through
the normal Apache process.

Best,
Josh
