So the next logical step would be to ask him. If Ross said that

Martin, why don't you implement your solution yourself, if you think the

Please speak for yourself only. Is it just you being upset to

I really don't understand what all the fuzz is about. We have
a two step process:
* Step 1
What the PSF initially needs is an acknowledgement of the
contributor (committer or not) that he or she is willing to
accept and enter into the agreement.
This can be done by checking a checkbox on the bug

I hate arguments from authority, but here's the 2010 breakdown of

That's like saying "anyone with access to a printer can send a patch via
postal mail".
Sorry, but we are in the 21th century now.
Fortunately this *can be discussed at the members' meeting. Since I don't
always follow python-dev I wasn't aware this was blocking commits - the process
is pretty straightforward as it is. Guido established the Foundation to do what
it's doing, but we would love to do it more efficiently. But a
