To be fair, the system does address the case of the upstream developers:
it is recommended that they co-maintain the packages of their software but
leave ownership of the packages to experienced packagers.

This has been explained to Joan a number of times.

The small issue I have is that, while Joan claims to want to become a
packager in the mails he sends to the devel list@, he a) is very secretive
about what steps he has taken to seek out a sponsor and b) has said in
the review bug that he has no intentions of following the guidelines.

Let's hope this dichotomy gets resolved sooner than later.
