This is no disruption or mess. These are important topics to continue discussing.

I'm sorry if I made a mess by doing so. It's a pity that the matter didn't reach dev or user lists before so I could have said it earlier, though I understand not everything is to be discussed publicly. Yes, Lu, I understand there must be rules, of course... But that doesn't mean they are always fair/inclusive or that one has to agree with all of them or that they cannot change in the future (I passed 18 long ago :)) I could also ask for add-ons writing access, but even if I was granted that, it would feel like fake... since indeed I've never contributed an add-on. I don't think it is wise either to inflate developer community with ppl that have not contributed an add-on, and that would not even be fair to those that have indeed done so. I would just like to have the right to vote as the (bothersome) user I am... I mean, maybe I'm the only one, dunno, but if not interested or committed to the project why would someone else or anyone in any case want to involve him/herself into this? :P So, in conclusion, not to make it endless, it would be great if upon request/approval users could vote either in this occasion or in future elections... GRASS is shipped with contributors and contributors-extra files, maybe those are good starting points, no? :) Thanks a lot!
