That's going to be a lot of fairly mindless paperwork for someone who's the member of a large, active team with a lot of packages. For example, I feel for Gregor Herrmann (253 packages) or Gunnar Wolf (187 packages) having to fill this out for every package they uploaded for pkg-perl. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-qa-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
