Well, the reason why I bring this up is that some folks email core that
they want to hand in their commit bit for safekeeping whereas other folks
just do a commit on access*. I don't mind either way, but I think it
would be better to formally notify the hats (core, portmgr, doceng) that
is responsible for handing out the bits. For the src commit bits I include
this in the core report so that if need be there is a reference once 
the bit requested back.

(sjeez, it starts to sound like a company out here.. :-} )
