but if they can't get commit access before they are DDs, it makes it inconvienent for them to contribute. A dedicated team would allow to give access to non-DDs with limited privileges (for example using protected branches).
I oppose this. Unless I misunderstood, I don't think new contributors should be given commit access to any branch, especially not to protected branches. What they need is the ability to file MRs and people to review them. Non-DDs (e.g. DMs, or regular contributors) can be given access on a case-by-case basis.
