You surely have the right to object to Dawid having commit rights.
And i understand your argument why, but that has nothing to do with
me or the list. There are people on the MAINTAINERS list who do not
have commit rights.
for example the developers who i presume are paid by loongson to maintain 
the mips/loongson code do not currently have commit right.
Seems a similar case to me

thx
