See About CLAs. Typically, unless a company is involved, you fill out the ICLA at http https://www.apache.org/licenses/#clas and then typically email a scan of the signed copy to secretary@apache.org with the form filled out to notify SpamAssassin Project.

When your account is created, an ASF infrastructure volunteer will send you a password for the Apache login server (currently people.apache.org). This allows you to log in to set your SVN password, as described here. Here's a quick summary of what to do:

...

This keeps changing, so look at http https://www.apache.org/dev/new-committers-guide.html and http https://www.apache.org/dev/version-control.html for a more canonical set of instructions. If those pages differ from this page, they're more likely to be reliable.

You should subscribe to the security list by sending a subscription request to security-subscribe at spamassassin.apache.org.

Be sure to read how-it-works.html – there's lots of useful stuff about ASF processes there.

Wiki Markup
First, propose a vote to add the person as a committer on the *private -at- spamassassin.apache.org* list.  Usually the subject is *\[VOTE\] Name*, btw.  You need 3 +1s,. allowAllow 72 hours, and your to ensure everyone has time to see the call for votes and have their say. Your own vote counts as one +1.





Templates for the emails calling for a vote and announcing the results of the vote can be found at Email Templates. Use the templates to facilitate automated processing in creating the new committer account.

Upon a successful vote, send an invite to the person (text below). If the invitation is accepted, grant the person's Bugzilla account with the 'EditBugs', 'HasCla', and 'Security' group permissions. This is done by following the "Users" link in Bugzilla, specifying the account by email address, clicking on the correct username, scrolling to "Group Access" and ticking the appropriate checkboxes. Ask the person to subscribe to the security mailing list, and approve their subscription request.

Then, ask infra to set up an apache.org account: http https://www.apache.org/dev/pmc.html#newcommitter . The UNIX group to request is "spamassassin".

...

The PMC chair then needs to follow the instructions at http https://www.apache.org/dev/pmc.html#SVNaccess to give the new committer r/w access to the SVN repositories.

...

Given your CPAN userid, someone with the karma – this may be just JMASON – logs in to the PAUSE Share Permissions page, and selects '3.1 Make somebody else co-maintainer', filling in your userid. (This can wait until it's needed, since you probably won't know the committer's CPAN userid right now.)

...

http://freshmeat.net/project-admins/edit/14876/ – possibly again only jmason can do this and as of May 31, 2012, this project on freshmeat appears long out of date.
