Branch pushes require an approval but there's no specially endowed
person who has to give that approval i.e. you can do it if you
feel comfortable doing so.

The current policy is:

* For IcedTea
  * HEAD - commit if sure, ask for review if not
  * Branches - require approval for commit
* For IcedTea-Web & VisualVM Harness
  * All commits require approval.

I'd try and enforce review on IcedTea HEAD, but in practice, patches
tend to get stuck in an unreviewed state.  IcedTea-Web, in contrast,
is working so far (touch wood).

To reiterate, approval is just from another developer who feels
qualified to give it.  Obviously, if you don't know that bit of the
code too well, it's best to err on the side of caution and not
approve.
