My preferred variant: 1. community developer commits his changes to a version control system somewhere 2. he sends some kind of pull request to the red hat maintainer 3. red hat maintainer looks at the changes 3a) he doesn't like them -- he mails the community maintainer some reasons why he doesn't like them 3b) he likes them -- he pulls them and queues build > It could be as simple as adding a keyword to bugzilla.
