I am sorry but being the maintainer does not imply approver rights. At
most it implies approver rights for the component he is maintainer for. I
agree that when you maintain a cross module component that this is
somewhat harder to manage.
selective approver rights are not implementable for a horizontal
responsibility, so this is kind of moot.

In any case I am sure that waiting for the required time does not make
much of a difference. Then this discussion is over anyway.
the previous thread already used the word approver without futher
qualification
(http://lists.qt-project.org/pipermail/development/2016-August/026909.html)
and nobody objected, so i just gave mike the rights.

Let's not quabble over this.

Becoming maintainer of anything in a main module implies becoming Approver
everywhere, if one is not so yet.

Restricted maintainership rights should be used only for playground things.

+1. Being maintainer of something that is part of Qt does of course imply approver rights.

Cheers,
Lars
