Commit access requests/Archive 1

SPQRobin
Well, I sent my request to Wikitech-l just before this page was created, so I'll add my request here as well to be sure.
 * Commit name: robin (my wikiname is SPQRobin but uppercase appears to be not allowed)
 * I want to use it to commit and maintain my extension (see Extension:WikimediaIncubator) to be used on Wikimedia Incubator. Maybe I'll do some general work/maintenance as well, or fix bugs, when I see something I can fix.
 * My key: http://toolserver.org/~robin/publickey.txt
 * I have already worked on SpecialInterwiki extension but I didn't work on it further since I didn't have commit access.. I also used to work a bit on i18n through Translatewiki.net (for example, reporting unused messages, ...) although that's not so important for this :). Also, some patches I submitted, are and.

Thank you, SPQRobin 20:20, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

algorithmix

 * Requested commit name: algorithmix
 * Expected area to work in: extensions
 * I am the primary maintainer of Extension:DynamicPageList. At the moment I publish new releases on my own website. Somebody was so kind to upload the latest version of DPL to the MW svn. Now I want commit access there to make the MW svn repository the master place for further publications of DPL.
 * link to my Public Key
 * link to DynamicPageList at MediaWiki svn
 * I think that my extension could be very useful on wikipedia installations. I understand that some people might be afraid of DPL being critical in terms of performance. What can I do to prove that you can get the benefits of DPL without risk? Algorithmix 07:45, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Happy-melon

 * Requested commit name: happy-melon
 * Expected area to work in: I generally do little tweaks, usually page layout and display of system messages. I'm having a play at a couple of extensions too: another special page to add to Oversight to allow old oversighted edits to be converted over to the new RevDelete format; and a total reboot of the DeleteQueue extension to make it a) work, and b) be suitable for consideration for use on enwiki.

But I now have a test wiki all to myself to destroy test patches on, so that shouldn't be a problem now... honest... Happy ‑ melon 17:36, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Expect to work in core, already have commit access in extensions.
 * Public key.

 * If you've already got commit access, you don't necessarily need to re-ask for core rights here. Probably can just poke Tim to tweak the authz file. ^demon 11:45, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
