The only thing I might recommend of the podling is to try to leave low-hanging fruit in jira unpatched for a longer period of time to allow outside contributors the ability to participate. Coupled with identifying these tickets on the mailing list, that might lead to more outside contributions.
I do share the concern that we have several elected committers that haven't yet advanced to the ppmc level. Perhaps there's not enough project-level mentoring (as opposed to IMPC mentoring) going on to bring these newer people along.
