Hi guys,<br>
<br>
Stemming from the SVN era, a lot of community contributers still
have full commit rights on the blessed repositories.<br>
Because GitHub offers the "pull request" paradigm,<br>
the lack of commit rights are far less intrusive than in SVN.<br>
<br>
Many community contributors seem to prefer contributing changes
through pull request paradigm,<br>
as it forces a core developer to sign off on the changes.<br>
Having direct commit rights can even be counter-intuitive:<br>
for example, if you edit a file directly on github, it doesn't
create a pull request, but applies the changes directly.<br>
Commits from contributors that come in via pull requests are still
attributed to the original author<br>
and count towards the original author's stats, so there are no
additional disadvantages.<br>
<br>
Following that logic, I propose to <b>remove the commit rights on
blessed for these contributors</b> in 72 hours:<br>
Please note that we appreciate past and future commits. Please keep
the contributions coming! :)<br>
