Uh, Wow. Yes. He should have commit rights - he was granted them when the multiprocessing pep was approved, but then vanished for several years (myself and others tried getting a hold of him). Lack of any contributor agreement or response from him is actually why the header files for multiprocessing including the specific license due to lack of contributor agreement from him.

He should have commit rights: In fact I'd love to talk to him offline about where he went off to! I assumed he was gone-gone!
