What exactly is it that you aim to solve besides just fixing bugs? The latter can be done without commit access using the Github fork and I'm sure there are other ways as well. Don't get me wrong, the more people help team matz the better but in my opinion being a member of the Ruby team comes with quite a few responsibilities that are not as easy as they initially might seem. To cut a long story short: I'm interested in a more in depth explanation instead of "I will fix bugs". Yorick
