I've never officially maintained anything, is there some documentation somewhere as to what exactly I'm agreeing to, if I take on proxy maintainer-ship? Also, of how proxy maintainer-ship actually works? I.e.: would I need some particular person to agree to be my commit-bitch or can I just sign off on patches, somehow, and expect a pool of commit-bitches to magically push commits for me?
