And there are *social* barriers too. For instance, in portals.apache.org every committer, by design, has access to the whole portals repository, i.e., to pluto/jetspeed/common... repositories, but a, say, jetspeed committer arriving from nowhere to commit code in pluto would surely face -1. Even myself arriving from inactivity to patch something would get extra scrutiny and would have to justify carefully what I did unless I commit some really obvious small fix to a bug, and even so.
