in my point of view each need at least the Acked-by of SOB of one Maintainer
at least
as we need to trace who ack and apply what

As done in the kernel people that write the patch need to put there sob
Maintainer that apply to patch the sob too
Maintainer or people that ack a need the Acked-By in the commit
If someone test Tested-By
if someone review Reviewed-By

the key point is to trace the patch work flow

I think it will be good that the development tree will not be the official
release tree.

So we officialized this
before Sunday you send me the official pull request for the 0.5.1-rc1

and then until the next merge window only fix pull request can be send to me
or pull request for the next branch for the next merge window

I'll send an e-mail every rc and release

but it will be good to have a list of maintainer that can send such kind of
request with the area they are responsible of

if possible a MAINTAINER file as done in the linux kernel

Best Regards,
J.
