For ml stuff, I usually put ml herd + non-gentoo proxy maint, meaning: anyone with some knowledge of ml (ie in the herd) can commit, there is no specific communication method with the non-gentoo maintainer, so there is no need for me to be listed there. Now, these packages have proxy-maint as co-herd, and I'd prefer people that are not familiar with ml (ebuilds have their set of specificities) not to blindly commit packages because it's proxy-maintained.
