Good! Any objections to this? I'll call a vote on the matter before making any authorization changes, but please bring up any concerns or objections already before that. In the sandbox we have various bits of more or less experimental code that are currently not targeted for release. It would be helpful to lower the barriers for people to come together and work on such code, and giving more people commit access is one way to do that. Existing Apache committers already have a CLA on file and have demonstrated enough merit so that we don't need to worry about things getting messed up. As an informal rule I'd still expect external committers who choose to commit to our sandbox to be subscribed on dev@ and to follow at least the relevant parts of commits@. BR, Jukka Zitting
