you can be maintainer and leave pushing to someone else if you feel
that you dont know git well enough.

What a maintainer does is "maintain" the code. Like if some other
developer sends a patch, the maintainer should try to review it when
he has time, if theres a bug the maintainer, author, commiter,
reviewer (that is the maintainer and anyone who bears responsibility
for introducing the bug) should try to fix it when they have time,
The maintainer should also get reviewed patched pushed, either
by pushing or pestering someone else to push

you seem the most active and interrested developer for hdcd, so it
would make sense for you to be the maintainer of hdcd
