Hi, Would our PPMC members agree to give Janandith commit rights in http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/sling/whiteboard/ ?
According to Jukka's explanation below, this means having a vote like for a committer, indicating the limitations (limited to that svn path and to the duration of GSoC), asking infra to create the account and updating the svn authorization file. At first I thought there was a magic way of making this happen without an actual ASF id, but that's not the case. The benefit is that Janandith's code goes directly into our SVN, and that would allow him to work exactly like a committer, only with limited rights.
