- Subject: [maint] New architecture committers
Hello,
(I think I've been careful in first raising this core maintainers, and
the people listed below, and finally even given the architecture
maintainers a heads up)
I'm looking to add the following as developers that are free to commit
changes to their respective architecture with out waiting or needing
approval:
+ Randolph Chung (pa)
+ Jeff Johnston (ia64)
+ Kei Sakamoto (m32r)
+ Joel Brobecker (mips)
+ Ulrich Weigand (s390)
(Although if there's anything truly controversial I'm sure they'll post
an RFC instead :-).
To point out the obvious, there's nothing saying that it is only their
changes that they can commit. Provided they are careful with
assignments (I'd go by people listed under write-after-approval) they
can technically commit (and therefor in effect approve) patches from
others (this actually the same mechanism that allows core developers to
commit/approve patches).
However, they're also not technically "maintaining" these architectures
(i.e., solely responsible for patch review, etc), that ultimately
falling to core maintainers, thence me. Since these are all active
developers I don't see myself doing much work :-)
Any thoughts? Congratulations!! I guess I now twiddle my thumbs for a
week before committing :-)
Andrew
