Communication should be done via a package-specific mailing list. The
maintainer of the package decides who has commit privileges for this
package and who gets on this package's developers' mailing-list.
This mailing list could be used as target for the bug reports against
this package.
Regarding stability: We will need at least two branches: for stable
and for unstable. When some people cooperate on porting to a specific
architecture and this port does not work yet, they could create an
extra branch. (Usually this won't be necessary.)
