The way the git access works is 1. Developer sends a patch to the MAINTAINERs file 2. people can object to that patch like to any other patch 3. patch is applied and the new maintainer is offered write access unless that is forgotten, the developer explicitly doesnt want write access or is too inexperienced with git. There is no leader involved in this process anywhere thx [...] -- Michael GnuPG fingerprint: 9FF2128B147EF6730BADF133611EC787040B0FAB Breaking DRM is a little like attempting to break through a door even though the window is wide open and the only thing in the house is a bunch of things you dont want and which you would get tomorrow for free anyway
