I'd like to propose giving committer rights to Nadeem Vawda.
+1 to this proposal. Please ensure that Nadeem Vawda is "interested" too.

We don't benefit from having a large number of people with rarely used commit rights or folks that check-in a bunch of code and then disappear.
OTOH I don't see much of a cost either to having folks with rarely-used commit rights (I am one myself :-), and I do see a risk in placing the bar for commit rights too high (I don't want the Python committers to be "growing old together"). So I think that it's enough to require that someone is interested (always assuming we trust them).
I don't know Nadeem or his work so I'd abstain on this specific vote, but the number of +1 votes (and lack of counter-votes) from people I trust is enough for me.
