As Neal says, a single committer can review and commit. However, non-committers can also review; this is the point of asking for patch reviews. In many cases, the initial patch will not be good enough: it will lack documentation and test cases, it will contain bugs, not follow the code formatting guidelines, and it will make changes irrelevant to the issue being addressed (gratuitous changes). A reviewer is supposed to sort these all out, and then end up with a final recommendation (accept or reject). Of course, if it is going to be reject, there is little point in making the submitter comply with formal criteria. Ideally, a committer then will only have to read the entire review process, agree with it step-by-step, and commit the proposed change. As a historical note: people doing a lot of reviews eventually end up as committers, just because it is easier for the other committers if they also do the final step.

[Python-Dev] how bugfixes are handled?
Hi, How bugfixes are handled? I've posted a bug and a patch + test case for a quite common issue (see google, problem mentioned on this ml) long time ago and nothing happened with it http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=1380952group_id=5470atid=305470 Is anyone reviewing fixes on regular basis? Or just some bugfixes are reviewed + commited depending on interest of commiters?
