This implies that module has an owner. Not every module does. Some people such as yourself and Fireball are adamant about reviewing what goes in and spotting breakages real quick. Other parts like the BSD code used in the network stack might not have the same level of review so step 1 could be a non-starter. I agree with all the other steps though, having branches, commit to the branch, run the test, integration suite does the rest of the magic and commits to the trunk everything should be good provided the system and tests are robust enough.
Thanks
