Guido has to give his blessing -- that he finds this useful and
appropriate for the Python library. He does that using his own criteria
and feedback from people here.

For example, I'm "+0" on it. (meaning that it seems okay, but I can also
live without it)

The actual mechanics are outlined at SourceForge:

Nope.

There are ten people with checkin privs:
  http://sourceforge.net/project/memberlist.php?group_id=5470

Five of them are admins (Barry, Fred, Guido, Jeremy, Tim). They use
<whatever> policy to determine whether a given person should become a SF
project member. That policy is probably just a gut feeling rather than
concrete rules, so I can't say "X, Y, and Z." I also don't know what kinds
of policies that they are asserting on people with privs.
