Just wanted to note that volunteers Yuri Astrakhan (yurik) and Tyler Romeo (Parent5446) now have +2 rights in MediaWiki core and all MediaWiki extensions. They can thus give binding reviews to your changesets.

You might remember Yuri from API work years ago and from his web API proposals and work recently. Parent5446 has been submitting changesets since July 2012 and was reporting bugs as long ago as 2008, and cares a lot about authentication and security.

Thank you both for your work past, present, and future!

Currently requesting consensus for maintainership in core: hoo ("Hoo man"). https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Git/Gerrit_project_ownership#Hoo_.28Marius_Ho...

Several other folks have gotten +2 on specific extensions recently, as you can see in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Git/Gerrit_project_ownership/Archive . Right now I am emailing wikitech-l when we have a new core maintainer but not for the more frequent new extension maintainers; hope that makes sense to list inhabitants. :-)
