My two cents: Giving a big group of people commit access to addon packages results in conflicts if intended commit was useful to everyone. Most simple example is breaking tests for sake of being lazy and adding functionality. It can be of course mostly avoided, but not prevented.
Having something like djangopackages.com + pypi classifier would achieve the same goal. Pull requests are also easy to make, I would propose rather to have a good read about preferred way of contributing to package maintainers. Also managing permissions (or basically and configuration) for organisations on github in PITA.
