Which is what I did. ;-)

Well, is there any official suggestion/recommendation from us/FESCo how
to handle it? For me it sounds the best if we normally leave approveacls

maintainers, so it might be good to leave this job to him normally.

But I don't care much (and maybe it's not even worth discussing)
