Hello Folks, I'd like to discuss possibly modifying the MOTU SRU process to allow a wider group of individuals the ability to approve MOTU SRU requests that are simply no change rebuilds. From my experience on the motu-sru team, I've made a few observations: ~99.99% of rebuild requests pose minimal levels of risk; if a MOTU requests a rebuild he or she is usually involved in maintaining the package in question; and frequently the reason the rebuild is necessary is because of another SRU or security update (ex. xulrunner-1.9).
So in the spirit of making life easier for everyone, I'd like to propose allowing all MOTUs the ability to approve SRU requests that are no change rebuilds. Optionally, we could also require that the MOTU approving must not be the MOTU requesting. Thoughts, Feedback? Cheers, -- Cody A.W.
