That's right, as the owner he can directly clone the repo, work on his 
own machine and push changes back to the github repo whenever 
appropriate. The thing that is a little more involved is accepting 
contributions (via pull requests) from other people, who do not have 
write permission to the repo themselves.

As you probably know, many open source projects have "contribution 
guides" that give interested newcomers guidance as to how to make a 
contribution, sets expectations regarding code quality, naming and other 
process issues and avoids miscommunication from the get-go. There's 
plenty of good ideas out there, and it might be useful to look at a few 
of these contribution guides, to see what resonates with this group.
