Hi all,
What do you think about giving commit access to Zachary Ware? He's been active on the tracker for a while and has contributed a good bit of Windows code.
I'm not doing much Windows stuff these days, and unfortunately I haven't had much time to contribute much lately. The latter will be changing, but the former probably won't. Anyways, Zach is interested in picking up some of our Windows slack and I think he could benefit from commit access.
Although I've been mostly quiet, I have been nosy on most of his issues and have looked over most of the patches. I volunteer to continue looking after him as I too get back into contributing.
Any thoughts?

Sounds good to me - my interaction with Zachary on the tracker has been limited but positive, and I've definitely noticed the steady stream of python-checkins messages with his name attached :)
Cheers, Nick.

I think *we* would benefit from him having access ;-).

When it seems like busy work to apply someone's patches, it is time to let them do it. On #17883, I would like to tell him 'go ahead and try it', with full confidence that he would watch the buildbots for any unforeseen problems.
+1.

Definitely +1. I've committed a couple of his issues and I'm tracking a few others. Much of what he's done is around the Windows build process and its documentation: a somewhat thankless if much-needed task, and a great example of scratching his own itch!

I've managed to find some time to go back over patches and update / commit some stuff. Hopefully I can continue. I'm actually using Zachary's configure.bat/make.bat from issue16895 to help my build / test process.
As an aside: I'd actually like to see those committed even as they are, but I'm not 100% sure about the 64-bit builds so I'll probably try to post an updated patch and see what the feeling is.
Anyway, +1 on giving him commit privs.

+1 from me. Worked with him a few times on the unittest.main() cleanup and he has always been quick to respond and pleasant to work with.

+1 I committed many of his patches this year and I think it's about time he gets commit access. The fact that he is also interested in Windows makes him an even more valuable addition to the team. I can also help supervising him if necessary.
