Sounds like you're making too big a deal about the vote here. It's basically just about making sure that everyone agrees about the "decent contribution" part, so except for the few extra days of delay in letting the vote run its course is pretty much the only extra overhead I see here (yes, the Incubator adds a bit of extra complexity, but that's temporary). Is the vote perceived as a bigger barrier than that? If not a vote, what (or who) would decide who gets commit access? BR, Jukka Zitting
