one thing that could perhaps speed up gentoo is specifying at what point |

or what steps are required before it is ok to "step on others toes". |

we have the QAcanfix keyword, for bugs where QA "threatens" to just fix |
| 5 |
the bug if the maintainer doesn't react timely... but it appears to be the |
| 6 |
tree could generally move faster, if there was an agreement as to when |
| 7 |
somebody is allowed to fix another maintainers stuff. |

if we had a formal process in place, one could always execute on that and |
| 10 |
fix the issue oneself, instead of having the cheap excuse of "well, |
| 11 |
<slowguy> hasnt fixed bug xxx yet, so i cant move". |

this process should ideally be very lean and short - as to not discourage |
| 14 |
these type of changes. |
