I don't intrinsically disagree, but why would you discourage a contributor, who obviously has something to contribute, by increasing the barrier to participation. I don't think your someone who suffers from not invented here syndrome, but sometimes I get the feeling from the haiku dev's, that somewhere in the dark depths of the past, there is a bit of not invented here syndrome that discourges new developers from contributing.I don't think we should give commit access without going through the usual process (submitting some patches and geting them reviewed without a any problem). I'd rather avoid "special" commit access rules and look at improving our workflow instead. And yes, I did mention gerrit which I think is a very good tool for patch review, much better than our current trac-based stuff or even the "pull request" system at github or bitbucket.
BTW, great work on web+, works great Sean
