If you mean making an NMU that I felt so confident about that I released
it *without* prior warning in a bugreport - e.g. because I interpreted
older conversations in a bugreport as being in support of my (surprise)
move? Yes, I have experienced that, and after dusting off my immediate
reaction of self-rightousness, I felt foolish that I hadn't spent just a
minimal time probing ahead, instead of assuming that silence was in
indication of negligence.

If you mean first informing, then issuing an NMU, and then getting
reversal, then I cannot remember such incident - do you call that luck?
Do you mean to imply that overly silent maintainers are generally
non-cooperative, or what are you trying to say with your remark - which
I have trouble reading other than snarky (and I apologize ahead for
that, which in good faith gotta be a misreading).
