Commit rights for Robert Collins
Hello all,
Robert Collins is volunteering to help with maintenance and improvement of unittest. He's probably known to many of you, but Robert is the creator of subunit, testtools and many Python libraries particularly in the area of testing.
I'd like Robert to have commit rights for this purpose. He's already submitted quite a few fixes and patches. Most recently issue 16662.
http://bugs.python.org/issue16662
Robert is an experienced and accomplished Python developer, so won't need much mentoring beyond learning our development processes (which branches to merge to, when a bug fix can be backported etc). In as much as he needs any mentoring I'm more than happy to work with Robert.
Improvements to unittest, and design discussions around new APIs and API changes, will continue to happen on python-dev and on the tracker.
All the best,
Michael Foord

+1 from me too (Disclosure: I actually suggested to Robert that he ask Michael about this idea)
Cheers, Nick.

This sounds ok to me.

It looks like there is general agreement that Robert should be given commit rights. I forget, who should he send his ssh keys to?
Thanks,
Michael

For the record, he hasn't contacted us yet.
I suspect things may have been somewhat hectic at HP in recent weeks :)
Cheers, Nick.
P.S. For folks that don't follow the business press: on top of various HP Helion related updates, HP recently acquired Eucalyptus, and has now announced that it will be splitting into two separate companies. It's just a guess, but it wouldn't surprise me if all that has been somewhat distracting for the OpenStack folks that work there.

Antoine.
