At PAUSE we can set up a mailing list user (it's not really a mailing
list) for Perl::Critic. Anyone we add to that list can assign
co-maintainer permissions. See the guide I made for the Parrot people:

Getting co-maint for new modules in a package

2008-10-11 Thread Chris Dolan

The Perl::Critic team has a small but persistent problem with PAUSE.

We frequently add new policy modules to the distro.  When we do so,  
the person who does the release gets ownership of that namespace.  We  
have three co-maintainers who do releases, so reminding each other to  
grant co-maint on the new modules is becoming an unwelcome ritual  
before handing off the release baton.
