As you will have seen there is "bureaucracy" involved in getting the 
necessary "tags" against ones account so that people can use 
functionality of the opensolaris.org site to do their job (such as 
posting codereviews on cr.opensolaris.org).

For the crypto project in particular I've been pushing my whole team to 
stop using internal infrastructure as much as possible and use 
opensolaris.org so that we do as much as we can in the open: design, 
develop and codereview.

As a leader of this community I'm going to assert that anyone who is a 
member of the security community [1] who has also integrated code into 
OpenSolaris directly (bug fixes included) or indirectly via a project 
that integrated in the days since opensolaris.org went live on June 14th 
2005 be granted core contributor status of this community if they don't 
already have it.

That includes all the active projects that the security community endorses.

Before I go off and compile the list (basically by using the putback 
logs to ONNV) does anyone object to this ?  If so why and how should we 
do this differently ?

The main reason I'm doing this is to be proactive and to make things 
efficient and easy for people developing code for OpenSolaris to use the 
site to its full potential.

[1] by being on the alias or marking themselves as an observer in the 
webapp.
