Spec files are no rocket science and the process for them is heavily 
backed up by FPG.

One way to achieve that would be that one could do so by becoming proven 
packager through some kind of mentoring process ( which does not exist 
btw ) I would think.

Atleast I would think you would have to first complete that step then 
proceed into being allowed to actually patch the actual source of the 
component.
