and here. If people are already committers for a sub project, there is no problem if they (or their community) ask for committer access on Cocoon. Similar like Cocoon/Excalibur.
Cocoon committers don't have commit access on the sub projects, do they?
AFAIK they do
They do. Here's our avail settings:
avail|stefano,balld,ricardo,rubys,ben,zvia,giacomo,gears,bmclaugh,bloritsch,rossb,jeremy,greenrd,dims,ssahuc,prussell,cziegeler,mman,sylvain,vgritsenko,haul,morrijr,crossley,ovidiu,tcurdt,gianugo,froehlich,huber,dirkx,butlermh,nicolaken,ivelin,kpiroumian,shannon,proyal,stephan,coliver,crafterm,acoliver,stevenn,bdelacretaz,mlangham,michaelm,jefft,pier,bruno,asavory,ghoward,andreas,alexmcl,egli,gregor,michi,edith,felix,liyanage,memo,thorsten,joerg,upayavira|xml-site,xml-commons,cocoon-1,cocoon-2-historical,cocoon-2.0,cocoon-2.1,cocoon-lenya,cocoon-site,avalon-excalibur,avalon-sandbox
So Lenya peeps have access to ours, and we have access to theirs.
The fact that it has been set up that way doesn't reflect any policy, it was just the guy who set it up who fancied this would be a decent setup. I find it reasonable as well. We are supposed to review commit messages anyhow, and it seems like a nice way to warn people they should think twice before bringing on new subprojects or committers.
IMHO, XML and Jakarta are impenetrable forests of projects because of overcompartimentalisation and putting large walls between cubicles.
If anyone wants to see this changed, please speak up.
