I believe the plan is for everyone to have write access to the repositories that they maintain and to update them themselves.

I was not aware of that. I expected the release manager(s) to only have write access and library maintainers to submit pull requests to them. So ignore my last few posts :-).

Only release managers have write access to the boost super-project. So they can still control quality in terms of what goes into official Boost releases. OTOH, Individual libraries can do their own releases whenever they want to. This decoupling is is part of why we hope that the Modular Boost structure will scale up to much larger numbers of libraries. --Beman
