[QGIS-Developer] Obtaining permission to approve plugins

[Tim Sutton]

Dear Axel

https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/my

then you can find a documentation link on the left menu:

https://plugins.qgis.org/docs/approval

But reading our docs I think they fall short in explaining HOW to get
trusted user status - I will ask Lova to add notes on this when he gets
back next week and then we will revert to you.

Regards

Tim
