.. For certain things, I think it would be very beneficial for this |
| 16 |
to be true (other dev's welcome to touch) across the tree. Maybe if |
| 17 |
there is enough general support for it, we should change our default |
| 18 |
of "never touch a maintainer's package without permission of the |
| 19 |
maintainer/herd", to "OK to touch unless package metadata explicitly |
| 20 |
requests not to" ...? And we can put a tag in the metadata to |
| 21 |
indicate this (or even to indicate what other dev's can and can't |
| 22 |
touch -- ie, can touch *DEPEND, can bump EAPI, cannot add features, |
| 23 |
cannot bump)? |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Thoughts? |
