Would it help to have teams of maintainers for specific packages or a specific category of packages? Perhaps something like Debian has? Right now, anyone can review any package. But, no one is "responsible" for any package, and this feels a little chaotic.
Also, should we accept any package into Guix (provided it is free software, of course)? Or, should we pick and choose, packaging only sufficiently mature software? What about unmaintained packages? Debian's policy is to remove unmaintained packages. What is ours? Perhaps we need some kind of package popularity contest like Debian has. These questions are bothering me, because I feel we don't have sufficient labour power to handle the enormous number of packages out there. I've been meaning to raise these questions at some point. Though these questions are somewhat tangential to this thread, I thought it might be ok to raise them here.
