If you want to use the wiki on the git/git repo on GitHub that is being mirrored from the canonical repository, I've added Junio and peff to the account. If you want to use that wiki, anyone with a github account can edit wiki pages on the site or clone and edit it locally and push changes up. You can also turn off site edits so people have to send Junio a patch instead. It's up to you guys, but the access is there now if you want.
