It's based on my current understanding of things. I don't have on an official Red Hat hat and instead am wearing my community member fedora :) At this point, the exact policies around how to get a (non-anonymous) login for Extras CVS haven't fully formed. It's basically going to end up being a lot like the policies for a lot of other repositories (think cvs.gnome.org, etc). Basically, you start doing some work, gain some degree of trust and then get an account. Which will probably basically be "show some body of work (fixes, new packages, etc) via mail/bugzilla/something" and then an account gets added. As for commit logs, http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora- extras-commits has what you're looking for. Policy-wise, that'll come at the same time as we start doing the first. But it'll probably end up being something mostly along the lines of be smart, make good packages and there won't be huge problems. I expect that all of this will start coalescing a lot better over Christmas and into the new year. It was just better to start getting things out instead of waiting for everything to be perfect.
