Bit more clarifications, as new podling in Apache, the initial members of PPMC consist of mentors and initial commiters of the project.
I understand TVM already work mirroring ASF meritoracy [1] but we need to change the proposal to follow Apache guidelines to help us cross check membership later for onboarding. If it is OK with you I will change the proposal to merge the "Initial PPMC Members" and "Initial Committers", minus the mentors from ASF, to be just Initial Committers.
