Yes, the gerrit owners plugin is installed on our instance:

https://gerrit.googlesource.com/plugins/owners/+doc/master/README.md

The missing piece for wide-scale deployment is the submit rules.  I’ve not  
had time to figure these out - if someone wanted to get the first example  
working on a repository that would be much appreciated.

With that said Ivan, as an alternative to this^, I think if you:

-submit your application for review
-procure reviewers for your application (_real_ reviews, not rubber stamps)
-one of the existing maintainers merges it

and _then_ submit yourself for merge authority to all of phosphor-logging I  
suspect the phosphor-logging maintainers would be fine with that.
