Reading up on their wiki what their plans are and what the process to
become a committer there looks like ... now-ish.

Definitely, +1!

While ping-ponging ideas back and forth with Sebastian in a two hour
session late yesterday afternoon, we've come up with a
project/application utilizing an optimistic concurrency control
protocol (in our case Wave) with a scope beyond real-time shared
editing. This is what we've been needing ever since Cola, an
interesting application scenario different from text editing to ensure
that our APIs for concurrency control for shared state in a real-time
environment in a high-latency network are stable, extendable,
orthogonal and lend themselves for wide applicability. I'm willing to
put more time into this. This is exciting.

Here's a teaser photo ;) http://moo.mx/interstellar-thermonuclear-war

We'll put together a short summary and might submit this as a proposal
for an EclipseCon talk as well.

Cheers,
