Okay, good to know.

I wasn't going to go there :p

Well, it's a little different right now because there is apparently a lack
of devs at this moment
who have push access and the time / energy to review these small patches,
(and in some cases, also having the expertise in whatever area the patch is
relevant to.)

In such a situation, once we've reviewed half of the someone's patches at
least and they
seem to know what they are doing, it seems much better to try to give them
push-access right
away to keep them engaged. It surely gets quite old having to lobby in the
irc channel for
someone to merge a bunch of patches, when the channel has been relatively
quiet lately.

Best Regards,
