Let's say he would take the role of patching stuff in Stable, there would still be double work for the release team and security team for at least: - Checking the packages before upload of security fixes (that's security team work), or upload of bugfixes to proposed-updates (that's the release team) - Making security announces There's nothing Michael could do to reduce that work. However, as stated before, uploading to Sid or Experimental could be done (if the SONAME clash gets fixed), and I don't think anyone would oppose for more contribution in Debian, especially with correct security support!
