Also, I don't agree that any optional package should be moved to the packages feed. The packages feed is a mess, often PR's are accepted without maintainer approval, sometimes even after explicit NACK by the maintainer or others. For this reason, I'm seriously considering removing myself as maintainer from any packages I maintain there.


if packages feeds are a mess and people with commit access there do things you don't like then that's an issue that should be discussed and dealt with.

Moving packages you care about in core repo is surely a good solution for you and the packages you maintain because you have commit access so you don't need to wait for review but for most other contributors it is only swapping a relatively small problem (package feeds is a mess) for a much bigger one (reviewers are scarce and a lot of stuff especially about "optional" packages no core developer cares much about langushes for months and bitrots).
