Can anyone become a FreeBSD Committer?

Do people with commit privilege have to hold computer science degrees or undergo some specialist training? Just wondering.

I think anybody can become a committer but you do need to have at least some FreeBSD track-record.

No, there are no formal requirements. Most committers are noticed for contributing many high-quality PRs, then proposed for a commit bit by an existing committer who will be their mentor.

To be a committy committer you must comittingly commit yourself to the committism of comitting the committingly committable.
