I meant to say that 2 maintainers per package is ideal and desirable situation which is not necessarily true for every single package in team. :) > > >> > It feels a bit like "finish it or leave"...

Perhaps not enthusiastically enough I expressed my interest and I'm willing to prioritise if you feel that I should. But I'm only one person so I'll move glmark2 to collab-maint within few days. I only regret about my little contribution to the team's existing packages.
