'newpackager' is not in FAS, or How to co-maintain a package before getting sponsored

[Robin Lee]

Hi, all

I want to follow the route [1] to bring up a new packager. But when I try
to approve commit privilege for him, pkgdb says:
"... must be in one of these groups: ('cvsadmin', 'packager',
'provenpackager', 'newpackager') to hold the commit acl"

I think he should join the 'newpackager' FAS group first, but the group is
not existing in FAS.

Or candidate packager would not get commit privilege until actually
sponsored?
