That's not true, from my reading of the developer handbook. http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/devrel/handbook/handbook.xml?part=3D1&chap=3D= 5 says: "Decisions within a project can be made by the people inside project itself, of course coordination between the projects is necessary. The (sub-)project leads are usually responsible for doing this." As far as I'm concerned, project membership is a decision within the project.
