Thanks Alex.

I had an exchange of messages with Ludovic, where some of the people
with commit access were also CC'd and we (only Ludovic and myself) came
to agree that my work is good but some further mentoring is needed until
I can work completely on my own.

With that in mind, I'd like to have a feedback on what's there to
improve.
I can recall only recall some commit messages which were not completely
correct or otherwise not to the liking of the person who pushed them.

I'd prefer to have feedback first, and opinions of other people with
commit access as I value opinion over just giving access.

Grothoff over at GNUnet handles this differently than Ludovic it seems,
they prefer to give access to regular contributors and fix if a commit
breaks something (of course you shouldn't commit breakage in the first
place if you can avoid it), to take off the annoying task for commiting
trivial fixes in the names of other people. I guess that's why you ask
me, I start to commit so much that with still no review order/framework
in place commit access would make this easier. QA will still apply, but
commiting is also some minutes of work for the person who does it.
