<p dir="auto">I'm not aware that this process has been defined. Currently, only administrators can grant importer rights. As mentioned above, it  is likely to change in the future to include moderators. In any case, the DWG could already start thinking about the kind of paperwork it wants to see from prospective importers. Maybe it's sufficient to add a section to <a href="https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Guidelines</a> mentioning that importers need to get in touch with DWG and apply for an importer role.</p>
