Bar is interested in taking it over, but he is no Extras contributor yet. Sponsor foobar steps up and sponsors bar for Extras cvs access (only cvs, bar gets *no* permissions to requests builds in plague). Bar updates packages and sends foobar a note when everything is ready. Foobar reviews the committed stuff and requests build if everything is fine. If that worked fine for some update cycles and some time in general bar gets fully sponsored and gets permissions to requests builds. Opinions?
