8. Working inside the Apache Software Foundation
 Community before Code
 Let they that do make the decisions
 If it didn’t happen on the mailing list – it didn’t happen
 Any new feature should always be in jira first
 Critique the code – not the coders
 To become a committer – act like a committer
