Apache Flex is currently operating under CTR (commit then review). As a
committer you have the responsibility of making sure you have the legal
right to contribute any changes you commit, but there is no upfront process.
You check in whatever you want, and theoretically, your fellow committers
will review the changes. If another committer vetoes the commit then you
should revert the changes. Vetoes are supposed to be based on technical
merit.
Of course, if it were me, before checking in anything big or involving a lot
of work, I would probably start a thread on the mailing list first.
