Indeed I think voting is a bit useless, since probably mostly unfounded.
However, the initial mail was supposed to give potential opposers a chance
to speak up. Otherwise someone who reviewed many patches of someone else can
just go ahead and grant commit rights silently. Something closed like that
is not good.
My initial mail is certainly responsible, since I specifically encouraged
positive feedback. Next time I will just say I reviewed and applied a lot of
patches and think the contributor should get access, if no one objects by
then and then I will just go ahead and grant it. :-)
Best regards,
