I don't think that's *quite* the case? As has been noted elsewhere, the rules are:
> • People with php.net VCS accounts that have contributed code to PHP

It's clear that the second point has not really taken hold, but the first point adds the caveat
"that have contributed code to PHP", and that part *does* seem widely accepted.
So unless I am wrong, merely having a php.net account doesn't appear sufficient -- code or docs
contributions are an additional prerequisite to getting a vote.
Ben (and others) -- your thoughts? Is it really as straightforward as "having a php.net account
alone is enough to be eligible to vote" ?
