Given that Sean is vouching for him I'm fine with it.
I'm not sure I agree. Of course it could be argued the risk is minimal, but I think it's better if all people go through the same path of proving their motivation and quality of work. And if there's something wrong with that process we'd better address it than give random privileges to people we like :)
