For our initial deployment of the minimum viable product (i.e. today's
deployment) we can use the existing structure we've got of staff doing it. For
the long term, that's not viable. But, having a system in place to address
these questions should be our focus for the next deployment. Control of this
needs to be in the hands of the community.

If you can switch it over to it working on Meta instead of MediaWiki before
today's deployment, then you can do that. If you can't, then let's keep it on
MediaWiki and shift over to Meta later. If we can't do an automated migration,
pinging people to resubmit their authorisation requests shouldn't be the worst
thing in the world to have to do.

I'd say we can just give this to the stewards. But that's the easy part. The
hard part is the social structure for who should get grants. Because this is
somewhat distributed (each individual project can have its own grants) a
structure like we have for advanced permissions should work. That is, we can
give the actual power to the stewards, and let each individual project come up
with some social structure to handle when the stewards should flip the switch.
Projects that are too small to have that structure in place can have it handled
by the stewards.
