Unless I've missed it, no-one else has spoken up and suggested what the second VCS should be. I'll have a play with darcs as soon as I can, and talk with infra about whether we can support it or not. Is it okay if I come and pick your brains to help with this? > * It should be possible for us to assign commit permissions to any people > we think are qualified without any formalities and delay. Absolutely. This is one of the corner-stones of the project. > It would work, of course, and it would help prevent certain complaints, > but it's not absolutely necessary.

The only formallity is that the request will need to come from the project lead listed on your project's page under www.g.o/proj///. I need to talk to infra first, but in principle I don't see a problem with project leads being allowed to delegate that power. Best regards, Stu -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
