The idea is that releases at large are handled upstream. Packaging and
thus fiddling with how to get sources into shape for shipping them to
the user is done by the pkg teams. The more comfortable the upstream
release handles the roll-out task the less work there is for a pkg team. 
Getting more involved would in the first step be finding bugs (i.e. use
the packages and spotting when it misbehaves), reporting them to the BTS
(bugs.debian.org) and most preferably writing patches to solve bugs in
packages. Those can then be sent back to the BTS and applied by the pkg
group. If you happen to feed a certain pkg group quite a lot of patches,
it's rather likely that you'll get direct svn access to their group's
repository.
