Hello, and thank you for applying for a CVS account.
To apply for a CVS account and be co-maintainer, you need to create a support request in the project queue where you explicitily ask to be co-maintainer; only after the current maintainer accepts your offer you can apply for a CVS account.
I've developed a separate module that works on top of location + gmap modules, and want to upload it to drupal.org, as requested by some members of the community.
I apologize if I didn't understand what you meant in your original post.
The archive containing the code needs to be attached in a comment here, and the motivation must include more than two sentences that are used to describe the module features, and a comparison with the existing solutions.
The module provides reverse geocoding capabilities to Location CCK fields, which means that you can fill all the fields of a location field through a click on a button. It relies on Google Geocoding API.
Comparing to other modules that perform this task, this one stands out for out-of-the-box integration with Location module, as well as for being very lightweight.
To use the module, you need:
A valid google maps api (of course)
'Use a Google Map to set latitude and longitude' checked at /admin/settings/location
'Coordinate Chooser' set to 'Allow' or 'Require' in your Location CCK field's Locative information -> Collection settings
Once you're done with the above:
Just pick a location on the map, click the "Fetch Address" button and it will fill in the available fields for the location you've picked.
PS:
For now, the module stands just as proof-of-concept, in response to a thread open since November 8 2007, which can be seen here.
The status of this application will be put to "postponed" and by following the instructions in the above link, you will be able to reopen it.
Or if your application has been "needs work" for more than 5 weeks, your application will be marked as "closed (won't fix)". You can still reopen it, by reading the instructions above.

@HLopes has been contacted to ask if the application is abandoned.
After ten weeks with a status of needs work: the applicant may be contacted by a reviewer to determine whether the application was indeed abandoned. The action taken by the reviewer should be documented in the project application issue.
We started to use, and - almost - completely rewrite your module. What about your time factor in the future?
Would you mind, if we take care for your module? Is it possible to "give" a sanbox project to someone else?

hlopes commentedI'm not asking to be a co-maintainer...
I've developed a separate module that works on top of location + gmap modules, and want to upload it to drupal.org, as requested by some members of the community.
The module can be downloaded here:
http://drupal.org/node/190578#comment-3885580
And the requests of the community members can be seen at
http://drupal.org/node/190578#comment-3888550 and downwards.
The method i used in the module can be adapted to other modules as well, as long as they provide a latitude - longitude pair somewhere.
For now, my intention is to get this module to cover all reverse geocoding necessities for Drupal.
Hope to hear from you soon

arianek commentedHi. Please read all the following and the links provided as this is very important information about your CVS Application:
Drupal.org has moved from CVS to Git! This is a very significant change for the Drupal community and for your application. Please read the following documentation on how this affects and benefits you and the application process:
Migrating from CVS Applications to (Git) Full Project Applications
Comment #8
jeffschulerI'm taking the liberty of updating this from a CVS application to a project application.
The project is already in HLopes' sandbox: Reverse Geocode, available via:
git clone http://git.drupal.org/sandbox/HLopes/1078432.git reverse_geocodeComment #9
doitDave commentedHoly shiver! This is almost vintage stuff here!
OK, let's start with a quick automatic review to get some points.
It appears you are working in the "master" branch in git. You should really be working in a version specific branch. The most direct documentation on this is Moving from a master branch to a version branch. For additional resources please see the documentation about release naming conventions and creating a branch in git.
Review of the master branch:
This automated report was generated with PAReview.sh, your friendly project application review script. Go and review some other project applications, so we can get back to yours sooner.

Comment #11
hlopes commentedNo, just lacking the time to put this as it should be.
Will try to do so ASAP.
Comment #12
misc commentedCould we mark this application as postponed until you have the time to work on it?
Comment #13
hlopes commentedSure, no problemo..
What do i need to do once it is up & running?
Comment #14
misc commented@HLopes: Just mark this application 'needs review' when you are ready.
Comment #15
hlopes commentedOk, will do. Thanks!

efes commentedHi HLopes!
We started to use, and - almost - completely rewrite your module. What about your time factor in the future?
Would you mind, if we take care for your module? Is it possible to "give" a sanbox project to someone else?
Thanks.
