So there is a nomination and a vote by the PMC but only after the
following has been met.
(The following was taken from the link below for new committers.)
<<Developers who give frequent and valuable contributions to a
Project, or component of a Project (in the case of large Projects),
can have their status promoted to that of a "Committer" for that
Project or component respectively. A Committer has write access to the
source code repository for the associated Project (or component), and
gains voting rights allowing them to affect the future of the Project
(or component). >>
Clearly this requirement has not been met so I would suggest that
these two nominations remain as users of the project and at a later
point when they have exhibited valuable contribution to the project
then the nomination can be made to promote their status to committer.
Eclipse is getting a lot of bad press recently regarding projects not
following the process for new committers so we do not want to
contribute to this press by being a top-level project that doesn't
follow the Eclipse processes as written.
My team was just hit by this one for our core contribution. :-)

Mike,
Thanks for the link - I should have just posted it instead of trying to
paraphrase and yes
STP does inherit from standard top level v1.0 in its charter.
Regards
Carl.
