Hello, I am a semi-regular contributor for Python: I have contributed many patches since end of last year, some of them were reviewed by Antoine. Lately, he suggested that I should apply for commit rights. Some of the accepted patches: - Fix refleaks in py3k branch (#5596) - Extend stringlib fastsearch for various methods of bytes, bytearray and unicode objects (#7462 and #7622) - Various documentation patches, including FAQ Recently, I worked with Ezio to fix some tests and to silence py3k warnings in the test suite (#7092). And I am in touch with Fredrik to release ElementTree 1.3 and port it to Python 2.7 (#6472). As a final note, I would like to highlight a small script in the same spirit as Pyflakes: pep8.py I've contributed few patches for the version 0.5, released a week ago: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pep8/ -- Florent Xicluna

Semi-regular is quite humble. You have been cranking out patches at a higher frequency than almost any of us in the last 3 months. We are exhausted of reviewing and (most of the time) committing your patches :) (fortunately, your work happens to be of consistently good quality) Regards Antoine.

Sometimes it seems like half of the tracker updates are Florent's. Semi-regular is quite the understatement.

Agreed, I'd been thinking this may be deserved based on the number of "patch by Florent Xicluna" commit messages I had seen go by on the checkins list. The usual caveats apply though: - don't get carried away with the privileges - even core devs still put patches on the tracker sometimes - if in doubt, ask for advice on python-dev (or IRC) - make sure to subscribe to python-checkins The last point covers the fact that most checkin messages will get an after-the-fact review from other developers and those comments usually go straight to the checkins list.

Hello,

Thanks all, for your warm welcome.

Usually I tend to be cautious. -- Florent
