I wouldn't consider tags and Mercurial generated merge changesets as 
significant contributions to this Project.

Yes. I'd consider both the integration and the original change as significant 
contributions as significant contributions
to this Project.

No.

transparent how to get
Project roles for new people coming fresh to this Project.

Well, the only way up from being a Reviewer is being the Project Lead ... and 
in true Highlander fashion, 
there can be only one per Project. ;)
