Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-8248:
--------------------------------------

Different projects do different things.  A lot of Apache projects are CTR; no 
explicit review is required before any commit.  On Avro, if a patch doesn't get 
a review after a few days we'll often say something like, "I'll commit this 
tomorrow unless someone objects".  So an opportunity for review before commit 
is provided, but a review is not required.  But on Hadoop a +1 from a committer 
who is not the patch author has always been required for significant patches.

> As discussed on the mailing list (thread "Requirements for patch review" 
> 4/4/2012) we should clarify the bylaws with respect to the review-then-commit 
> policy. This JIRA is to agree on the proposed change.
