Our  commit access approval is quite liberal already, however it's not
completely  instantaneous  -  people  still  need  to contribute a few
patches before being allowed to work on core, due to the importance of
security  in  MediaWiki  as  it's  being  used  on a top 5 website. We
already  have  315 commiters (a few of accounts are dupes though). The
problem   is  not  about  attracting  more  contributors,  it's  about
reviewing and deploying their code.
