Yup, and *everyone* with commit accesss has access to *everything* ... I
could intruduce a 1 bit change to one of the kernel sources and there is a
chance that nobody would ever notice it ... and this includes (or, at
least, the last time I did any work) port committers ...

And, as Josh pointed out, one of the goals with pgfoundry was/is to make
it easy for 'Project Admin' to add commit access to whomever they wish,
whenever they wish, something that doesn't happen with FreeBSD ... its
relatively rare that you see a new committer added, and not on a whim ...
