Depending on your level of interest you might join the sysadmins list but here is a high level overview.
Rules are checked into trunk and then go through distributed volunteer masschecks for promotion, demotion and rule qa for a genetic algorithm for scoring. When the system deems they are ok, DNS is updated to tell sa-update a new ruleset is ready. We use trunk with version conditional to produce one ruleset for most of the modern versions. This process takes about 48 hours and we could use volunteers who want to dig into some thesis level systems to speed it up. The primary reason I maintain KAM.cf is because of the publishing delays.
