I will chip in when appropriate, i.e. when I think road blockers are 
introduced into the specification, making things difficult for AppFrameworks.

I will also try to view any suggestion in the most positive angle and search 
for solutions around suggestions that may seem "incompatible" with my own 
goals.

Whether I have a vote or not is less important I think, since I happen to be 
totally convinced that this forum will need 100% consensus from the 
implementors for any proposal to pass, or the effort will fall flat (which I 
doubt anyone wants). So, in that light, I think everyone's knowledge and 
foresight will inevitable lead to something sustainable.

In respect to the "how many committers", my view is that we shouldn't be 
overly restrictive with committer rights, as it will only put more burden on 
those who has. Instead, proper review of commits and easy reversals of 
disapproved commits are probably better. Once this project is released, a 
Review-Then-Commit process could be introduced.

Cheers
