>To be a release manager , you need committer rights no ? No idea. It does not matter though. The contributor can do the heavy-lifting of composing the changelog, etc, etc.
Of course, there will be some work on PMC to formally vote, build from sources, etc. However, I believe it is not really that time-consuming. >I'll consider the case when it happens I am sure the case is crystal clear. It is sad if you still need to "consider". I absolutely see no reason for PMC to block releases for past versions, especially in the case when the contributor does most of the work. Vladimir
