Hello,
Just a quick note that, as per the new Gerrit policy~[1], the request task will stay open for one week. If consensus is reached in that time frame, it will be enacted by one of the gerrit administrators, so please voice your support and/or concerns at your earliest convenience.
Cheers, Marko Obrovac, PhD Senior Software Engineer Wikimedia Foundation

I propose for Aryeh Gregor to be granted the right to approve changes against MediaWiki core and extensions, by adding him to the mediawiki LDAP group.
Please voice support or concerns on https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T230979
Aryeh has been contributing to MediaWiki on and off for a decade or so, both as a volunteer and a contractor. He joined gerrit only a year ago, but he had commit access already back in the day when MediaWiki was still managed on SVN. In the time I have been working with Aryeh, he has shown excellent skill and good judgement. Granting him merge rights would allow him to contribute not only by writing code, but also by approving changes made by others.
Aryeh commented on the ticket to note the following:
My older contributions are available via git log --author simetrical. I couldn't find a webpage that would display the results of the search
that I
could link to. Note that that includes things from the SVN era that I
only
committed and didn't author, so it's inflated (probably only slightly).
But if
we leave that aside, according to git shortlog -sne, I have 1052 commits
(after
updating .mailmap to merge the three different e-mail addresses I've
used).
Surprisingly, this still makes me the #19 all-time contributor by number
of
commits. I think I always tended to break up my commits more than a lot
of
people, though.
