I remember some discussion a while back on the sentry lists about it. Note that the community has highlighted it in their status reports, so it should be nothing new/surprising. iirc (and I'm summarizing here, please correct me if I get it wrong) the new committers have had varying levels of activity. Some more active than others, but none that had reached ppmc status. Perhaps the team should be more aggressive promoting folks, but I don't believe it's out of exclusion or lack of understanding the Apache way. That said what would the action item the community should take away from this? As their mentor I'm not sure what advice i can give them. "add more ppmc members"? Sounds like that's in the pipeline. Seems artificial to me.
