Unfortunately it looks like there might have been some confusion. We
didn't grant the desktop team the ability to administer (add new members
to) the desktop-extra packageset themselves. It looks from the voting
here that you guys think like this is the case; I'm sorry for any
mix up. What we did grant was that desktop-extra upload access comes as
a consequence of ubuntu-desktop upload access.

I see some options

  - Rico applies for full ubuntu-desktop membership, which as a
    consequence grants desktop-extra upload access.
  - Rico applies to the DMB for desktop-extra upload access.
  - Any member of ubuntu-desktop asks the DMB to consider allowing
    ubuntu-desktop to administer the desktop-extra uploading team (not
    the set of packages covered, just the membership of the team).

Cheers,
