That's possible because |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
a) non-devs can be given commit access to the overlay's svn/a.n.other repository |
| 12 |
b) non-devs can be given create/edit access to the overlay's wiki / GuideXSL |
| 13 |

I do this already for the overlays I host on svn.gnqs.org. I can't |
| 15 |
migrate those overlays to overlays.g.o if we don't grant non-dev |
| 16 |
commit access! |

The confusion is probably because, in the original vision statement, I |
| 19 |
said that these things would only happen for overlays setup by, and |
| 20 |
for, official projects. I wanted a disctinction between who could |
| 21 |
commit to overlays run by projects, and who could commit to overlays |
| 22 |
run by individual developers. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
However, if the concensus is that we want non-devs to be able to |
| 25 |
commit to individual developer overlays too, we'll make that possible. |
