Re: [iot-pmc] Small patch exceptions?

Dear PMC colleagues,
This is probably a noob question, but I think to remember that in the
past there was something like a „small patch exception“, which allowed
to accept typo fixes and single line comment/documentation changes to
be accepted without requiring an ECA from the contributor.
I am not sure whether I only dreamt of that exception, because I
cannot find anything about it in the committer handbook nor anywhere
on the web…
I’m just asking as I am not sure how to correctly handle
https://github.com/eclipse/smarthome/pull/6117 - asking the person to
add a sign-off, register an Eclipse account and sign the ECA just to
change an „an“ to an „and“ is imho the safest way to scare him off and
never ever see him again…
So do we have any exceptional rules that I am not aware of and that
can be applied here? How do you handle such situations?
I would suggest asking for assistance from emo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
If there isn't currently a way to do this, please open a bug and we will
look into it. I agree that there should be a lightweight mechanism to
accept one letter corrections.
