When you were provided with an account in the glibc project you were put in the glibc group. After reading the above link, I can see why you thought that you needed an additional step. That web page does seem to instruct that you have to send email here. That's not required, however. The only reason to send email here is if you already have an account on sourceware and are not a member of the glibc project. Otherwise, the new project form is enough. Could someone change wording at https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/MAINTAINERS be tweaked to avoid this understandable confusion?
