No.  Anyone who has a cvsextras account.  The "anyone who's signed up"
would be the cla_done group.  And hopefully in the future, there will be
a group even outside of that so community contributors who just want to
watch what's going on inside of Fedora Packages/in Fedora Bug reports
can sign up.

In any case, the group that has cvs access is much more stringent than
"signed up for a Fedora Account".  It's also currently more stringent
than "works for Red Hat".  Not sure how that's going to play out in the
next two or three weeks as we start in earnest to merge Core and Extras.
