Isaac, are you listening at the moment? I'd really appreciate your input here. <br>
<br>Devs, I'd appreciate it if someone (anyone) would respond to my query. ...? If you don't think you can answer on behalf of others, can you perhaps just tell me who/how/why you got commit access? <br><br>Ta,<br>

HI Guys,<br>Honest question... I've been wondering what the requirements are to becore a "core developer" and/or to get "commit access", and whether these things are actually the same or not? <br>
<br><br>Is it as simple and dictatorial as "Isaac decides?" (which is OK, by the way), or is it more of a diplomatic/democratic system where oher dev's can decide/invite?<br><br><br>Is there a criteria for what you must do in-order to be considered? ( eg: "post at least X good patches, and create X new features?" or perhaps "be involved in the project for X amount of time"? )<br>
<br><br>Oh, and Yes,<br> I did look through the wiki for this information, but didn't find it. ( I might be blind though!) <br><br>I'm just wondering, because I'd like to be considered. I've been around on the -dev list just a little while (sometime before sept 2005), and started posting patches in 2006 (#936 was my first) I also have been quite actively posting patches/etc for approx a year, including the first repeatable and automated build env/tools for win32 (on top of andre's great work porting it there in the first place).<br>
<br><br>what else do I need to do? <br><br>Ta, and thanks for everyone's patience, <br><font color="#888888"><br>Buzz.<br>
