Yeah, sorry, there was too much to discuss that day and auth system for 
cbs is gonna be changed, so I didn't manage to open this topic, but 
would like to return it next week.

You should follow the steps in:
https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/CommunityBuildSystem

which requires creating a ticket at http://bugs.centos.org.

However, the build system is being switched to another auth system these 
days, so I'm not sure whether the steps on the page above are still 
valid. Anybody knows? I guess you can follow them and in worst case 
you'll need to do it again. Sorry, but it's not clear to me either.

I'm not sure whether wiki page is necessary at this point, if there is 
anything to be explained about the new SCL, mailing list should be 
better, since wiki page changes don't hit many people. If there is 
supposed to be some summary, it may be created later as well.

I don't think it is necessary to have access to cbs to gain access to 
wiki. Following steps at 
https://wiki.centos.org/Contribute#head-42b3d8e26400a106851a61aebe5c2cca54dd79e5 
could be enough hopefully.
