Just to be clear, what you're saying is we want to change the policy that says "committer must be on list of approved committers && commiter==author" to "committer must be on list of approved committers && author must be on list of approved committers"? Assuming that's what you meant, there is no support for that in the scripts now, but if we agree that's a good thing it should be trivial to add it. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
