Hi,

This is a proposal to grant commit access to Barrett.

He has been around for a very long time and he is trying to help with the Media
Kit currently. Unfortunately none of the devs feel comfortable enough with the
current codebase of the media kit to review his patches (see for example
https://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/11852#comment:11 , there are a few other
tickets in a similar situation).

To me it means Barrett knows the media kit better than any of the active
developers, and we should probably grant him commit access, despite the lack of
review on his patches.

As an alternative to review patches for Haiku, maybe people willing to have a
look at his code can try the IM client Caya, which he is currently maintaining.
