Well, they won't get automatic shells on project machines, but I don't see why they wouldn't get an account if whatever it is they are doing requires it. This could be maintaining a buildd, some other service like packages or forums.d.o or any other number of things. This proposal would add infrastructure that allows us to give accounts to just such people. Right now, without keyring, ID check or anything it's still theoretically possibly to give such contributers access, practically tho it means it just isn't done. -- | .''`. ** Debian GNU/Linux ** Peter Palfrader | : :' : The universal http://www.palfrader.org/ | `. `' Operating System | `- http://www.debian.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
