Who wants to be Davin's mentor and tell him to do the steps outlined in https://docs.python.org/devguide/coredev.html#gaining-commit-privileges ?

I guess I'm just worried about the health of this project. I'm doing what I can through the migration to GitHub to make it easier for others to get involved while making it easier for us to accept the work of others, but the maintenance and health of this team worries me. For instance, if you look at the developer's log you will notice we only gained 2 core devs for all of 2015 and the last one was August 2015:
Last year on this list, I recommended that Davin Potts be granted core developer status for his on-going work on the multiprocessing module. This group collectively said no, leaving Davin in an odd and uncomfortable
Huh? Searching for Davin Potts in my mail, I see a ~27 message long

from January 2015 about that. Many of us were +1 to give him commit rights.
I personally assumed it had happened, but the only objections seemed to be "lets see some patches first"... That part has happened:
Among the other things in my mail with Davin's name mentioned are several streams of committed patches over the past year or so on multiprocessing related issues (as expected), including recently.
berker.peksag, martin.panter and serhiy.storchaka have been the primary committers of said Davin patches.
+1!
I was going to send an email to python-committers about this a couple weeks ago, but I couldn't find enough time (or I was just lazy :)) to collect issue numbers (he did a great job on triaging old multiprocessing issues) and commits.
+1 from me. I have committed not too much Davin's patches (they were not easy), but confirm his proficiency. We need an expert in this domain.
