I rather prefer to not have people have root access on the builder.

1) they are used to build the rpms we distribute
2) root access also mean that some people might just do a quick fix to
make some tests pass instead of making a proper long term fix where it
is needed.

This is something that can be fixed by using LDAP.

Also, we expect people to request that access, or someone is in charge
of picking them ?

Also, do we have a formal list of maintainers ? And a process for
becoming one ?
