We're actually thinking of removing that option altogether and letting people who are paranoid update the acls in the pkgdb before they import any code. Otherwise, the idea of changing things around sounds right on the mark :-)Hi, With the goal of opening up ACLs on 'most' packages, I'd like to suggest that the New Package CVS Request template on this page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/CVSAdminProcedure Change the last line from: Cvsextras Commits: To: Cvsextras Commits: yes Since the whole point of the template is for people to cut and paste it, this will make 'yes', truly the default option. Also, the text could be changed to be more descriptive. Something like 'Other Fedora members can commit' or change it around to 'Restrict commit access'. Sure, the user should read the documentation half a page down and choose 'yes', but how many people don't? And, more to the point, the term 'cvsextras' isn't really defined anywhere on the page.
BTW, we should have discussions like this on fedora-devel I think. packaging is for discussions of guidelines and so it won't reach as wide an audience.
