-This is a list of `committer members`_ of the Zope Foundation:
+Individuals who give frequent and valuable contributions to the Zope
+platform can have their status promoted to that of "Committer
+Member". A Committer Member has write access to the Foundation's
+source code repository.  Becoming a Committer Member is a privilege
+that is earned by contributing and showing discipline and good
+judgement.
 
+A Committer Member who is not already employed by a Member company
+must sign the `Zope Foundation Membership Agreement`_ in order to
+attain the rights and obligations of a Committer Member.
+
+The Committer Membership are represented on the Zope Foundation board
+by Committer Directors. There are as many Committer Directors on the
+board as there are Strategic Developer directors (and always at least
+1). The Committer Members elect their Committer Directors using the
+Single Transferrable Vote process from among their membership.
