Hi,
I'd like to suggest granting commit access to Yury Selivanov,
primarily to assist with maintenance of the inspect module.
That's currently an orphaned module in the experts index, and Yury was
a driving force behind getting PEP 362 (the new introspection API)
accepted for Python 3.3, and has also picked up on a number of
introspection support issues we missed when adding other features to
Python 3.4 (like inspect.signature not handling
functools.partialmethod correctly - it simply didn't occur to me or
Alon to add test cases for that). He's also created a reimplementation
of inspect.getfullargspec for Python 3.4 (not yet merged, but close to
being so) that will allow almost all existing introspection code to
benefit from the Argument Clinic changes, not just the code that has
been ported to the new PEP 362 introspection API.
Yury's interested in the idea of commit access, and is comfortable
with our approach to code review and automated testing. As usual when
nominating someone, I'm happy to handle the mentoring period and
addressing any questions Yury may have about the mechanics of actually
pushing changes rather than having to wait for me or Larry or someone
else to merge them on his behalf.
For anyone looking, he has posted on the tracker as both 'yselivanov' (2
years) and 'Yury.Selivanov' (3 1/2 years). He has submitted patches on
about 12 issues, 7 closesd, and commented on another 10. These are
mostly issue I have not be active on, but the numbers are typical for
when we think about promoting someone.
