Strictly speaking GLEP 40 forbids it still, although some arch teams |
19 |
have made announcements to approve it, see e.g [1,2]. I wouldn't be |
20 |
surprised if one of the results of the stable WG is an updated GLEP 40 |
21 |
that (new GLEP replacing existing) that allows for MAINTAINER |
22 |
self-stabilization. Personally I don't like "any developer may perform" |
23 |
part of it. The maintainer is responsible, and should at least ack |
24 |
stabilization at all before anything is stabilized (for arch-team |
25 |
stabilization as well), and consequently individual stabilizations by |
26 |
developers, either the maintainer itself or someone with applicable |
27 |
hardware. |
