        Eli Zaretskii is probably not aware of the fact that he can do
this himself. Maybe you could explain this to him ? 

        Go to https://savannah.gnu.org/account/login.php
        login as eliz
        Go to https://savannah.gnu.org/project/admin/?group_id=40
        At the bottom of the page, just above the Add User button, 
        type <your savannah login name that I don't know>
        click on Add User

        And that's it.

        Although we could technically do it, it makes a lot more sense that
project leaders manage the list of developers for a given project instead
of people who are not directly involved in the project. Going back and forth
with savannah-hackers for that kind of day-to-day maintainance is a pain
for everyone.

        Cheers,
