Some additional information in case anyone cares:
I heard that there are 5 or so MATE developers. Two of which have taken
over a GNOME module (gnome-main-menu) as of last week or so. Meaning:
they have maintainer (which is different from just developer status). As
a result, these two maintainers have GNOME git accounts plus they can
approve git accounts for other people. I've explicitly said to them that
they it is fine to do so (grant git accounts) for all other MATE
developers (obviously not limited to MATE).

X vs Y vs Z (e.g. GNOME/MATE/XFCE) discussions are boring. :P
