Pepe:

I haven't been able to find if someone already asked for commit access for OpenWrt packages this way as I want to follow the way, which is described in [[https://github.com/openwrt/packages/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md|CONTRIBUTING.md]] and I found that paragraph was added in 12th August 2014. Let's see if this also works as I found created issues in packages repository, where someone requested commit access for some people.

For example,
openwrt/packages#5486
openwrt/packages#4372

I don't think that creating an issue in Github OpenWrt packages is a good way for requesting commit access, but if you want to do that, I'm just fine with that.

Perhaps, I should a little bit introduce myself and tell you why I'd like to have commit access.

[[https://github.com/BKPepe|My GitHub profile]], where you can see that I'm a maintainer of a few community packages in OpenWrt like youtube-dl, python-dns, syslog-ng and a few waiting to be merged like python-qrcode, python-requests and python-paho-mqtt, which are included in [[https://github.com/openwrt/packages/pull/8133|Bigclown pull request]]. It will be useful to have it for my packages, so I wouldn't bother Hannu ([[https://github.com/hnyman|hnyman]]) with almost everything, because I see this guy like most active in merging things there and I would like to help him.

There a few packages, which I'd like to have in community packages of OpenWrt, but they're new packages, which are not accepted very often. E.g. [[https://github.com/openwrt/packages/pull/7754|libyubikey]], [[https://github.com/openwrt/packages/pull/8014|czmq]] and last mention were reviewed by two guys ([[https://github.com/diizzyy|Daniel known as diizzyy]] and [[https://github.com/neheb|Rosen known as neheb]]). These two guys are really active and useful for reviews, nobody else is doing that very often and it's a pity that packages afterward are not merged. Even I see issues like [[https://github.com/openwrt/packages/issues/6584|this]] about lacking maintainers.

What could be interesting is that I created two drafts as Pull Request for [[https://github.com/openwrt/packages/pull/8337|python-qrcode]] and [[https://github.com/openwrt/packages/pull/8325|python-curl]], where I'm in the process to add support for mbedTLS.

If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them.
