The rule is, "wait to ask for Permission until a) you've been active long enough for the community (including PGs) to get to know you, b) you've proven that you have a solid grasp on the community spirit and Da Rules, and c) you feel confident that you know what you're doing and can effectively demonstrate it with your Permission request."

How long that takes for each individual varies quite a bit. I will say it's extremely unlikely that anyone could get Permission within a week of their introduction, but we've had people blow us away with their awesomeness in as little as two to three weeks, and we've had people like me who waited years before they personally felt ready to start writing anything. I actually think multiple months is more likely the norm for when is a good time.
