Arch Testers don't have tree access. This proposal gives the package maintainer the ability to commit their changes.

How would you ensure ebuild quality for these package maintainers?

Maintainers will also go through a recruitment process, although a much shorter one which focusses only on ebuild maintenance - maintainers will not have the karma to introduce new ebuilds into the tree. The idea is to make the recruitment process as easy and quick as possible, while ensuring that the person involved has the requisite skills.

Also, packages may not be marked stable until a full-fledged-developer/ QA-member has approved of it. Packages being broken in the testing tree are not uncommon, and we are usually notified quickly enough to fix it.
