Ticket #14796 (pike): please commit

[Nick Ludlam]

Speaking as someone who's applied, and is awaiting a response on  
whether I'll be allowed to take over an existing port, I'm sure that  
new committer blood is out here. However, I'm still awaiting a reply.  
How many people process the commit requests at the moment?

I'm not chasing up, as I've spoken to jmmp on IRC, but it's more of a  
general observation/query about the system as it stands.
