Would it make sense then, since the RM has control anyway, to just send a patchfile to the RM if you're only making small changes (bug-squashing) to a single file?
If it's just a small change, a patchfile is about as easy for whatever developer you send it to. If you send it direct to the RM, other arch-using developers can't get your change until the RM merges it. (Whether or not that's a good thing to do is an open question: it depends on how laggy the RM is.) -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only and not of any group I know Creative copyleft computing - http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ LinuxExpo.org.uk village 6+7 Oct http://www.affs.org.uk
