Well, it's a nothing more than git commit and push once you
sent me your public SSH key :-D

One of the stronger points for collaborating at the source is that
poeple who are not Gentoo devs (yet) and therefore have no write access
to the Gentoo tree can still extend and fix the Gentoo packagemap
entries.  Doing it downstream would hurt the whole project
in several ways.
