Do you mean only users who wish to become arch devs need to be AT's? It
reads as "all users who want to become devs must be ATs."
Well, depending how you want spin it, I either did or didn't mean that.
I'm just saying that if we're going to basically give them everything
that a "developer" gets sans commit access to the tree (which not even
all official developers have by the way), why not take the extra step
with them? I can tell you, for example, that if we encountered any
folks good enough to be a mips AT, we'd probably just skip that whole
business and make them an arch dev. I guess what I'm *really* asking is
whether this GLEP is necessary?
