The real bug title should probably be "Allow more of the core development team access to upload to dlang.org".
Yourself and many others should be able to update the public website. As far as I know it's just Walter and Andrei at the moment who can do it. Right now is the perfect example of why only having two uploaders is a problem. Both of them are busy at a conference. I believe Walter defers all the uploading to Andrei. Trusted group of developers is larger enough that it doesn't make sense to have all of the burden and bottleneck on Andrei.
Even better, I think, would be to have the website just update automatically from git (nightly, perhaps). Have a script that generates the website from a git tag (or even better, a branch called "public" so hotfixes can be made) and uploads it to dlang.org. Also add preview.dlang.org which just uploads the website generated from d-p-l/{dlang.org,phobos,druntime}:master (sometimes people report bugs in the website that have already been fixed in master).
