No karma to update NEWS; change merge request

I don't have karma to update the NEWS file. I get

    COMMITINFO /repository/php-src NEWS
    **** Access denied: insufficient karma (sixd|php-src)

Contact group@php.net for access to php-src

    cvs commit: Pre-commit check failed
    cvs [commit aborted]: correct above errors first!

Can someone merge these changes to PHP 5 and 6? The diff is for PHP 5.
