This contradicts a bit the fact that you can do commit without review.

 I said "quickly", doing thorough review of all commits before a
release is not doable. But it is the role of the maintainer to check
all the commits that go in a repository, because we don't have ways to
enforce that all patches are the one that are ack on ML. (and I don't
think we need that, to me the process works well so far)
