It's nice to know who the team actually *is* though; having a team.debian.org webpage or something where such things could be listed would be lovely. (So that you can tell if both/all the team is on holidays, if a response from someone is official, who to try talking to on irc to get an immediate response, etc; looking through changelogs, or mailing list archives is okay, but not terribly convenient, especially for team members who happen not to post a lot, or happen not to upload a lot) I really hate looking at packages maintained by a list because I never know who's actually behind it. (There's plenty of ways to make that not a problem, such as using the Uploaders: field; but the above might be a useful datapoint) Cheers, aj
