Commit access requests



This page serves as a central location for users to request commit access to SVN. Please note that just because you've listed your name here doesn't mean that you'll get access. Final approval for access still lies with Brion and Tim.

'''Quick warning -- we haven't established a schedule for looking at this queue yet, so don't be worried if it takes a while to respond. --brion 22:16, 28 April 2009 (UTC)'''

 * Just a comment . . . although the amount of work you've put into making MediaWiki better software is very commendable, your view on things is often radically different from the rest of us. You have an awful lot of bugs marked INVALID or WONTFIX.  Given this, I think it would be prudent if you still had to get patches approved by existing developers, until we can all be confident that we see eye-to-eye and you won't commit things that everyone else will find problematic. —Simetrical (talk • contribs) 00:35, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

No problem, It's even less worry for me if my patches go through a second person than me directly applying them. I'm just thinking that I can save someone some typing for the trivial ones someday. Jidanni 20:46, 12 August 2009 (UTC)

 * This seems to do about the same as the PdfHandler extension; can you take a look and see if there are some different features in each that you might be able to merge into PdfHandler? --brion 21:10, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
