I'm proposing we grant commit privileges to Daniel Urban.
He's provided patches for a number of fixes and feature requests for 3.2 and 3.3, including a particularly thorny one in the metaclass machinery. He's been very responsive on the tracker, and accommodating of the occasional dramatic shift in direction for a patch based on mailing list feedback (most recently, the operator.build_class in C -> types.build_class in Python change).
Nobody else has an opinion on this? Positive *or* negative?
-0. I don't know who Daniel Urban is. It seems that he posted a total of four messages to python-dev this year, all related to a single feature of Python. My question now is whether he really *needs* commit privileges (or, rather, whether whoever checks in his changes at the moment would gain a desirable reduction of workload if Daniel could push changes himself).
Most of my interaction with Daniel has been through the tracker rather than python-dev, and it's specifically his work on fixing some (obscure) latent defects in the metaclass calculation for 3.2 that earned my respect (although he's worked on several other patches as well, the results of which can be seen in Misc/NEWS).
Regards, Nick.
