+1, though I'll observe that IME, actual commit privileges become much less of a special badge once a dvcs-based workflow is put in place. In the absence of that, I agree that we have enough checks and balances in place to allow more folks to commit changes. >approved.

The PEP handler will have to moderate This is a good idea, and certainly helps "scale Guido" better. We might also consider designating experts who can collaborate on PEP wrangling for certain topics. For example, if Martin would normally be the Cheeseshop PEP handler, but submits his own PEPs on the topic, the handful of experts can take up the slack when Martin recuses himself on his own PEPs. I'd hope that we could always find at least two people to wrangle any PEP, or we've got a bigger problem to deal with! Sounds like EuroPython was fun! -Barry
