Hi. I'd like to propose a policy for the case of people with commit bits updating other people's packages.
1) Please contact the maintainer. 2) Give the maintainer a reasonable timeframe to respond. Around a week is good, but this is negotiable. A quicker turnaround may be needed e.g. if an update to _your_ package is being blocked by something _someone else's_ package does. See 3B). 3A) If the maintainer okays your proposed changes, then go ahead. 3B) If you don't hear from the maintainer or if you can make a case that there is a pressing need to change the package before getting a response, then get approval from a Core Team member first via an emailed message to fink-core or on IRC. Core Team members should get approval from another Core Team member.
