Okay, great. Will do. Thanks!

Jay,
Figure 3 as the starting point does sound correct. Also, I suggest creating bug reports in Bugzilla for the "unreported" bugs that he's fixing (basically, change them from unreported to reported) so his fixes can be attached to those bug reports (via Gerrit).
Once his contributions have been reviewed and committed, you can re-nominate him and include the Bugzilla/Gerrit links that show the contributions.

Gunnar,

I emailed him and yes, I can confirm that each class is less than 1000
lines.

It required much less than I thought in fact. The exact totals are:

IPSReader : 454
IPSReaderTester : 155

IPSWriter : 263
IPSWriterTester : 215

CaebatModel : 464
CaebatModelTester : 236

So we will go ahead with path 3?

    Hi Jay,

    Sounds like multiple different things. If each review is below 1000
    lines of codes (not counting deleted lines) then a CQ might not be
    required.

    Please have a look here:
    https://www.eclipse.org/legal/EclipseLegalProcessPoster.pdf

    Based on what you are saying, I believe figure 3 does apply. Can you
    confirm?

    Gunnar,

    Yes. He has four new classes to add, two src and two tests for our
    I/O bundle, that he wrote over the past two weeks. He also has
    several minor fixes for unreported bugs that he found. Probably a
    few thousand lines in all.

    Next week he is going to rework two small bundles, probably 10-20
    files total.

        Hi Jay,

        Thanks for the update. The best way to get him starting
        contributing to your project is via Gerrit. After signing the
        CLA, he can push reviews right away, which can be merged by
        another committer.

        Is there existing code he wrote that should go into your code
        repository? If yes, how large it?

        Hi everyone,

        I emailed Wayne to figure out how I could get in touch with
        Gunnar/the PMC to talk about the vote to make Andrew Bennett
        a committer.

        I'm sorry; I should have been clearer in my nomination.
        Andrew is employed by us on this project and he should have
        been listed as a committer on the proposal (in Feb.) because
        I knew he was switching to ICE. It just slipped my mind. He
        is currently working on ICE full time and has a boat load of
        code to commit. He was a committer on the Sourceforge.net
        <http://sourceforge.net/> project too for eleven months.

        Wayne suggests that the code probably needs to come in
        through a CQ. I'm fine with that (and it would give us the
        opportunity to learn more about the process). This won't be
        the last of Andrew's work though. What do we need to do to
        get him committing?
