In principle by means of your global write privs. you can modify any part
of GCC, including libstdc++-v3 or the web pages.
Obviously, though, not even our global write privs. folks are expert of
every part of GCC (frontends, RTL, optimizations, every single port, web
pages,...) and will only change those parts they are confident about. :-)
And in cases where there is an active maintainer (like Ben for libstdc++
or me for the web pages) it's nice/polite/useful to communicate with these
before making significant changes, exactly as you have done. :-)
Ah, and if you're going to change our web color scheme to flash-green text
on purple background, please let me know in advance as well. :-) :-)
