Github user jburwell commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1658 @swill we never had a policy that only release managers could merge. Remi was active that he typically merged PRs before anyone else had a chance. The [release principles|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Release+principles+for+Apache+CloudStack+4.6+and+up] to which we agreed only said that a PR needed 1 code review LGTM, 1 test LGTM, and no -1s. It also lays out how it should be done. Nowhere in that document does it restrict who can perform a PR merge. To take away that privilege requires a change to the bylaws. Personally, I don't recall a vote where I gave my rights as a committer.
