Can't we extract this from an authors file? Looking at vdsm/AUTHORS[1]
it looks fairly easy.
That would be a bad idea. All someone would need to do is
add
themselves to that list?
Another thing I can imagine is that someone is not whitelisted but
his/her patch receives recieves a +1 from a whitelisted reviewer it can
be built as well. It would be built anyway if it gets accepted and now
jenkins can give -1 if it fails unit tests. Maybe at +2, but that leaves
very little time to actually build it because often it will get merged
straight away.
That does sound useful once someone not on the white list gets a +1
it
auto test as we can assume anyone reviewing is trusted enough to not +1
a dangerous patch. Of curse this adds even more complexity in a
plug-in. Although not specific enough to make the plug-in not reusable.
