And there is nothing wrong with that. However, I would not want to
formalize this any more: in principle, it should be possible for
anybody to who as an OS X box to step in and validate a certain OS X
patch. Given the various compile farms, really anybody could help.

Of course, the regular contributors may not have the time to obtain
the expert knowledge just to validate a single patch. However, I would
sure hope that new contributors become experts on areas on which we
already have one.
