I would suggest modifying the commit policy disallowing these kind of
things, saying the two Ack's must be from two developers not
affiliated with the same company.

I'd agree with this quite strongly.  I'm generally pretty careful to let
others review the changes from my coworkers, to avoid any bias.

Chris,

Not to point any fingers, but mishaps happen and numerous reverts would be a living proof of that in the repository... :) Nobody's perfect.

This would be a good topic for OEDEM.

For the record, I am really happy to see the .com people actively participating in the the OE project. I am also glad that they are pushing stuff into .dev and not keeping it in private repositories. This is a very good thing.

As I just replied to Frans' post in this thread - as a company, we are trying to follow review procedures closely and give enough time for feedback on the patches. I personally would like to apologize for the misunderstanding and promise to do a better job in the future.

That it seems that you're doing Ack/SOB in-house first is a good thing, I think.

As an active OE e.V. member on the other hand, I'm all in favor of this modification to the commit policy, as long as there is time limit on review period and if there are no strong objections, it can be pushed even if only acked by the same company. Let's discuss it further and vote at OEDEM.

So long as there's exceptions for limited area of expertise places. There's both things like packaged-staging where Chris and I and RP have dealt with it the most, and then there's also TI recipes that's really you guys.
