[python-committers] Commit privileges for Roger Serwy for IDLE

[Ned Deily]

I would like to propose Roger Serwy be given commit privileges to work 
on IDLE.  Roger has demonstrated long-term interest in IDLE and has been 
contributing to IDLE in a number of ways for years.  He has submitted 
many patches for IDLE to the tracker since at least April 2008.  He has 
developed a number of IDLE extensions (http://idlex.sourceforge.net), 
some of which he has proposed for inclusion in the standard library.  He 
is also active in triaging and commenting on the bug tracker and has had 
developer privileges on the tracker for the past 12 months.  He has also 
already signed the contributor agreement and I know he has been 
interested in becoming a core developer for IDLE.  I've informally 
discussed this with a few other core developers here at PyCon and I 
think there is general agreement that having Roger be able to contribute 
more directly to IDLE would be a really good thing.  I would certainly 
be willing to help mentor him as necessary.
