- File your ICLA and send it to secretary@apache.org
- Log in to https://whimsy.apache.org; that will confirm a working ASF account
- You can edit email routing for the account, and add other emails that you own
- You can directly edit mailing list subscriptions (for example, you might switch them to your ASF account - you can still post from any of your registered emails)
- Link your GitHub account with your ASF account at https://gitbox.apache.org/ once you see the big green “Merge” button on pull requests, this is working
- Read the ASF new committer guide: https://www.apache.org/dev/new-committers-guide.html
