No it's not, 4 commits are not enough as a proven track record. It's an 
unknown. Also, I'm sure that if you'll ask people on the ML, no one will 
know the nick or the name, except for JackDanielZ.

Well, as I've said, we haven't seen them here, as he haven't sent 
anything to the ML.
All we know now is that it's a guy that doesn't know how to work with 
open source (or maybe he does, I don't know, as I know nothing about 
him), haven't seen any of his commits and know nothing about.

His first 3 commits change almost no lines, and the last 2 change 
indentation so it's hard to see.

You getting access without any commits under your belt means nothing for 
this discussion.

No, I'm saying you should send to the ML, as all the active developers 
from the about dialog will be there.

See for yourself, nominate him for commit access, wait a few days, and 
see what people think.
