The distinction I've seen in other teams in that if the team is the 
maintainer, then any team member may upload as they see fit, but if the team 
is an uploader with an individual as the maintainer, then team members are 
free to work in the repository, but should not upload (except in the case of 
some urgency) without checking with the maintainer.  

I think either is fine and it's more a question of how you want the team to 
work?
