Who is upgrading permissions regularly apart from me?

Asa, for one. If there are going to be regular bugdays, I assume he will continue to do that regularly. And then there are other people who do it irregularly.

Fair enough.


Out of interest, what instructions do you give people when you upgrade
their permissions?

I normally say "Use this power wisely, my son." :-)


The instructions for upgrading privileges should match those outlined on http://www.gerv.net/hacking/before-you-mail-gerv.html .

If they are consensus, fine.

Consensus? They are the _law_, dude :-)

If this doc says that the procedure is to email you, then you can certainly define the procedure, and this doc should reflect that :)

But going back to the point above, you're not the only person with
editusers privileges.  Even if everything does go through one person, it's
still better to have stuff documented, so that procedures are transparent,
and can be picked up easily if that one person goes away (of course I hope
you won't be going anywhere, but one never knows)

What I meant by that (perhaps slightly flippant) comment is that over time, that standard has emerged as a reasonably good one to use, and the large majority of those who get canconfirm or editbugs get it by meeting it.
