Hi Reinhard, Just answering this unanswered question from the thread as I have nothing more (worth adding) to the rest. And everyone is probably tired :-)

The ITP states that someone wants to package something, and that they would like it to be maintained under the multimedia umbrella. We would just need to pay attention to that email and chime in with an "excellent/go for it", or a "I think we already have enough....". Then the one preparing the package does not need to be worried about pushing to the repo. It can always be deleted later anyway. At the point where the package is ready for review, or ready for upload (for the more experienced in the team), the usual question can be asked if there are others interested in "paying closer attention" to the package. Cheers, Ross
