This is most easiest part that is made possible by a DSCM like git: "Karl Foo of KBar fame didn't answer my request to include my improvements since $N weeks now. So I've opened a repository for KBar at $Location with my improvements." If the crowd follows, nobody cares where Karl Foo is. The important part here is: *if the crowd follows*. That's what I mean with earning trust points (and losing just as well) and it is the process that makes maintainers; basically, a vote by popularity.
