Overkill :-). Sorry, this word comes to mind when I read your
concept.

Frankly, you can send me a patch from Mars and I will always
independently or your name check technical quality of the patch only.
If you send me good patches often I will decide to give you write
access to SCM. This is the way.
(BUT.. in distributed development model (and SCM) you needn't any
access. You need to send me "please, pull from scm://..." only.)

You cannot describe these things (see Jeff's mail). It's more colored
and more difficult than someone of us is able to describe.

9 packages? Define the "package"? Kernel or gnome-sudoku?
17 quality reviews? Review of what? Patch to kernel or to any man
page?
Please, keep things simple. Nobody wants to study your wiki, nobody
wants to fight with our processes. I believe we want to work with
minimal overhead.
Smart people needn't strong rules. Intelligent and responsible people
need freedom.
