The following changes can be made by everyone with SVN write access:

-

Fixes for obvious typos in ChangeLog files, docs, web pages, comments -and similar stuff. Just check in the fix and copy it to -gcc-patches. We don't want to get overly anal-retentive -about checkin policies.

+

Obvious fixes can be committed without prior approval. Just check +in the fix and copy it to gcc-patches. A good test to +determine whether a fix is obvious: will the person who objects to +my work the most be able to find a fault with my fix? If the fix +is later found to be faulty, it can always be rolled back. We don't +want to get overly restrictive about checkin policies.

Similarly, no outside approval is needed to revert a patch that you checked in.
