So commit bits are handed out freely to anyone who asks? Some background: I used to be involved in Perl 6 development (Raku) and Autrijius did just that--anyone who wanted a commit bit got one. Highly decentralized, but by necessity there was some centralization in terms of where the repo was hosted. P.S.

Generally someone would ask for it in the irc channel, and if nobody objected after a little while I'd just add them. Ori's currently hosting the git repo, so I'll let him chime in on that if he wants. khm ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

I run the file server, sl runs the auth server, so we both need to create accounts with a matching username. I'd prefer to see patches before handing out commit access, but so far everyone that's asked has gotten a commit bit. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
