Until yesterday (almost literally), it was not possible to give you admin permissions
for 'hana', without also giving you admin permissions for every other repository in
the 'boostorg' organization. I've now tweaked the settings so that you can add/remove
collaborators on 'hana'.

Note, however, that those with sufficient permissions in the 'boostorg' organization
will always be able to change settings on 'boostorg/hana'. While any changes will be
mentioned on the mailing list, and generally un-doable, it's just not possible to lock
your repository, nor would it be reasonable to ask people to individually tweak
settings on 100+ repositories.
