They will have equal rights.

But duty-wise, as I indicated, Kazu will handle the upstream github 
chores, while Lianbo and Bhupesh will take care of Fedora, CentOS stream
and RHEL maintenance.  But with that being said, Kazu will rely upon
Lianbo and Bhupesh for multiple-architecture access at Red Hat that he
does not have available at NEC.  And while it's still under discussion,
they have so far agreed that patches posted to the mailing list will
require at least 2 ACKs from the 3 of them.

Thanks,
  Dave
