Sure! They're either people I know personally and trust (and hopefully people will trust me to do this transitively) or they are people who are already authors of popular libraries and have shown they are experienced in maintaining OSS projects and trustworthy (since they're already pushing code to people's machines).

Trust is definitely an issue here, and trust is something you build, so I hope we'll be able to build enough trust to let people not think twice about adding their projects.
