Is it enough to know the python process and how to write good patches? I
don't see why Yury would become but not Vajrasky Kok.
In this case, it's Yury's specific contributions to an orphan module and being a co-author of an accepted PEP related to that module that motivate my suggestion, rather than general bug fixing (which I agree would typically involve a wider range of contributions).
I see it as similar to the way we grant commit access to authors of "add a module to the standard library" PEPs as a matter of course so they can continue maintaining it.
Cheers, Nick.
I never liked how much time it takes to become a "core developer".
Developers know what it means to be core developer and usually ensure that they don't make mistake.
I didn't see Yury's work, so I'm unable to pronouce me about him. I'm
just trying to figure out how his profile is different from Vajrasky's profile. By the way, I also proposed to mentor Vajrasky.

Hi,
I'd like to suggest granting commit access to Yury Selivanov, primarily to assist with maintenance of the inspect module.
That's currently an orphaned module in the experts index, and Yury was a driving force behind getting PEP 362 (the new introspection API) accepted for Python 3.3, and has also picked up on a number of introspection support issues we missed when adding other features to Python 3.4 (like inspect.signature not handling functools.partialmethod correctly - it simply didn't occur to me or Alon to add test cases for that). He's also created a reimplementation of inspect.getfullargspec for Python 3.4 (not yet merged, but close to being so) that will allow almost all existing introspection code to benefit from the Argument Clinic changes, not just the code that has been ported to the new PEP 362 introspection API.
Yury's interested in the idea of commit access, and is comfortable with our approach to code review and automated testing. As usual when nominating someone, I'm happy to handle the mentoring period and addressing any questions Yury may have about the mechanics of actually pushing changes rather than having to wait for me or Larry or someone else to merge them on his behalf.
For anyone looking, he has posted on the tracker as both 'yselivanov' (2
years) and 'Yury.Selivanov' (3 1/2 years). He has submitted patches on about 12 issues, 7 closesd, and commented on another 10. These are mostly issue I have not be active on, but the numbers are typical for when we think about promoting someone.
