I believe this is what "write access to the group's repositories" means.
For example, if I become a member, am I expected to be available for
responding or fixing reported issues?
For groff, the answer is "yes", within one's domain of expertise.
I think this is a common perspective across a range of projects, but it's
a project-specific decision.
I welcome bug fixes, but I've never made it someone else's obligation, so
by that standard, having no other members makes sense.
