+1 on explaining "what" and "why" where the committers can see it, and +1 on limiting distribution. The one time I lifted someone's privileges that's the way I did it (by luck, mostly). In hindsight, the fact that it was all done in plain sight of the committers made it easy for us to put the incident behind us. The fact that it was only visible to the committers made it easier mend the relationship later. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
