   Hello $FIRSTNAME, The Impala Project Management Committee hereby offers you committer privileges to the project. These privileges are offered on the understanding that you'll use them reasonably and with common sense. We like to work on trust rather than unnecessary constraints. Being a committer enables you to +2 patches. Being a committer does not require you to participate any more than you already do. It does tend to make one even more committed. You will probably find that you spend more time here. Of course, you can decline and instead remain as a contributor, participating as you do now. A. This personal invitation is a chance for you to accept or decline in private.  Either way, please let us know in reply to the private@impala.apache.org address only. B. If you are accepting, the next step is to register an iCLA with the Apache Software Foundation: B.1. Details of the iCLA and the forms are found through this link: <http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas>. B.2. The form (text or PDF version) provides instructions for its completion and return to the Secretary of the ASF. Be sure to request "Impala" in the "(optional) notify project" field. B.3. When you transmit the completed iCLA, request to notify Apache Impala and choose a unique Apache id. Look to see if your preferred id is already taken at http://people.apache.org/committer-index.html. This will allow the Secretary to notify the PMC when your iCLA has been recorded. When recording of your iCLA is noticed, you will receive a follow-up message with the next steps for establishing you as a committer. The process will follow the process described at <https://community.apache.org/newcommitter.html>.

   
   

7. Wait for the contributor to accept.

8. Send the following email to the user and private@impala.apache.org:

   Welcome. Here are the next steps. After that we will make an announcement to the Impala-dev list. You need to send a Contributor License Agreement to the ASF. Send an Individual CLA. Ask us if you have any issues. http://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas You need to choose a preferred ASF user name and alternatives. In order to ensure it is available you can view a list of taken ids at http://people.apache.org/committer-index.html Please notify us when you have submitted the CLA and by what means you did so. This will enable us to monitor its progress. After that is done, please make followup replies to the Impala-dev list. We generally discuss everything there and keep the private@impala.apache.org list for occasional matters which must be private. The developer section of the website describes the roles and provides other resources: http://www.apache.org/foundation/how-it-works.html http://www.apache.org/dev/ Just as before you became a committer, participation in any ASF community requires adherence to the ASF Code of Conduct: https://www.apache.org/foundation/policies/conduct.html Yours, The Apache Impala PMC

   
   

9. Wait to receive notice that their iCLA is on file from  secretary@apache.org.

10. As of 2018-06-26, what happens next is based on whether the new committers user ID exists or not.

    1. In most cases, the user ID will not already exist, and the new committer's ICLA will not already be on file. In these cases, the secretary will create the acccount.

    2. In fewer cases, the ICLA will already be filed, but the user will not have a user ID., and the ASF Secretary will create the user nameWait for the username to be created. Check https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/committer/$USERNAME

11. Send this email to dev@impala.apache.org:

    Round Rectangle
    The Project Management Committee (PMC) for Apache Impala has invited $NAME to become a committer and we are pleased to announce that they have accepted. Congratulations and welcome, $FIRST_NAME!

    
    

12. Send the following email to the new committer and private@impala.apache.org:

    Round Rectangle

    $FIRST_NAME, as you know, the ASF Infrastructure has set up your committer account as the username "$USERNAME". Please follow the instructions to set up your SSH, svn password, svn configuration, mail forwarding, etc. http://www.apache.org/dev/#committers If you have any questions during this phase, then please see the following resources: Apache developer's pages: http://www.apache.org/dev/ Naturally, if you don't understand anything be sure to ask us on the Impala dev mailing list. Documentation is maintained by volunteers and hence can be out-of-date and incomplete - of course you can now help fix that.

    
    

13. Add the person to the committers list in gerrit in People > List Groups > Apache Impala Committers.

14. Set the new committer up with an account with "committer" privilege group on https://jenkins.impala.io/role-strategy/assign-roles. 
    1. If the person doesn't have an account yet, create the account by "Manage Jenkins" > "Security" > "Users" > "Create User". Use a temporary password and send it to the person.
15. (Optional: the Apache Infrastructure Team may have done this in step 9) Add the person as a committer (but not a PMC member) on https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/committee/impala. Click "Add" at the top of the page, search for the committer, click the "+" to select the committer, then click "Add as Committer". The interface is unpleasant and may redirect you to that person's name when you mean to add them as a committer. Press back and then try again.
16. Writing the wiki is restricted in order to prevent spam. Non-committers may have write access by just asking for it. If the new committer doesn't already have write access:
    1. Ask them to create an account and email you the username.
    2. On the wiki, in the lower left-hand corner, Space tools > Permissions > Individual Users > Edit Permissions
    3. Add the username with all permissions
