Yes Andrey, you can go ahead and add your name in metadata.xml. As for
adding the herd, it means other team members accept to take care of
the package as a backup of yourself (it can be the other way around
but it doesn't look like it's the case here). So either you talk to
them about this or you're in a position to make that decision alone,
in which case I'd still talk to the others anyway. For your info, only
one of dev/herd is mandatory, but both of them is better.

Denis.
