In itself the process worked, although I don't know if asking the 
AdminGroup is a good suggestion. We could add something like:

  - If you have not received a reply after 3 days, verify in the
    mailinglist archive that your mail arrived on the list and see if there
    weren't any replies to the list.

  - If your mail arrived on the list and you did not get any response,
    contact person1 or person2 to make sure we can fix this as soon as
    possible

to the process:

 	http://wiki.centos.org/Contribute

Would that be a better process ?

Can I rewrite that section of the Wiki to make it a bit more inspirational 
and exciting, I hate to discourage or loose any potential contributor 
because the process is heavier than it ought to be. So a bit of 
excitement can't hurt.

I would also like to add some links eg. where to create a login, a link to 
the archive, etc...
