Niclas, I request that you refrain from that kind of statement, and
apologize to Greg (off-list is fine). We can agree to disagree in a more
civil manner.

As far as I'm concerned, the participants are Committers. There is no need
to distinguish between them other than access rights in the SVN ACLs.
Partitioning ACLs is really nothing more than infrastructure enforced
behavior to make the PMC's required oversight task a bit safer (people who
shouldn't be changing something can't). ACLs are controlled by each PMC,
and represent infrastrucure enforcement of resource rights within the
specific Community. As long as the Community is healthy and accepting of
its own structure, I see no need to attack differences that aren't harmful.
The tone of the rest of your message was, at least in my opinion, overly
aggressive and harsh, and therefore not well designed to be convincing. And
certainly didn't need airing in that manner on a public mailing list.
