There's a RFS from February

Read Policy 5.1 again
Assuming no one else is already working on your prospective package,
you must then submit a bug report (Section 7.1, “Bug reporting”)
against the pseudo-package wnpp describing your plan to create a new
package, including, but not limiting yourself to, a description of the
package, the license of the prospective package, and the current URL
where it can be downloaded from.
Yes there's a *must*.

Christoph
