yes, that's what I meant: anybody can send patch, a committer must commit

for me, "editing" was about publishing, ie requiring commit privilege.

but there is a feature I don't really master in CMS for non-committers to 
easily submit patches: I found the doc [1] but never tried it myself.
This FAQ entry should probably be one of the first content to be translated to 
crowd-source translation :)

notice that if a currently non-committer propose a lot of good centent, he 
could IMHO be  voted to be committer on comdev (ie not on any code TLP, but 
general committer to have the commit bit to the site)

Hervé
