Sorry, I clarified that it was about GDC contributions. Arthur is Debian's GDC mantainer, and as far as I know, the only person beyond David with commit access to GDC.

The forum is locked because it is what provides the list on the front page with items, and as it is, the forum doesn't allow to only lock for new threads. Hopefully that can be added to the software later on.
