In both of these cases, I raise the judgment issue.  For the first,
what constitutes "evidence of participation" (and for that matter,
"participation")?  For the second, what constitutes "work included in
a GNOME release" sufficient to qualify for membership.  In both cases, 
who makes the decision?  Is there an appeal, and if so, to who?
