Yes, the nominations were for Zest only, and restrictions on commit rights within the GEF project are a social convention. Since Zest has its own Git repository, for Zest this would in practice mean write access to that repository.

However, from my understanding the concept of components (GEF, Draw2d, Zest) is offical, while the level below that would be the inofficial 'subcomponent' level (e.g. Zest proper, dot4zest, Cloudio).

And from the Tools project charter it is my understanding that 3 votes do suffice - if anything, I think requiring less would make more sense, since two votes would already be all of the current committers on the Zest component :-)

Cheers,
Fabian
