Right. The same for me to enter debian. And u can have access to
some debian cvs repositories without being a DD at all.
The key is 'the amount and quality of your work'.
This is relative to the point of view of people who grant accesses.
Someone has that low, some other higher. Who is right? None can say.
When someone will find a quantitive and universal method to measure that,
we should solve all problems. All the rest is gossip and flaming.
