If you skip the upload of a release this might be useful:

   -vversion
  In dpkg-buildpackage, dpkg-genchanges and dpkg-par-
  sechangelog this causes changelog information  from
  all  versions  strictly  later  than version (which
  must appear in the changelog file) to be used.

I did not try it out but it was suggested from someone else so I added it 
to my list of tricks :)

Debian-qa is ultimately trying to keep the quality of Debian high.
That means that we're:

+ Keeping tabs on which maintainers have gone awol.
+ Sending those packages to project/orphaned or temporarily taking over them
  ourselves, depending on the package's importance.
+ Occasionally doing non-maintainer releases in some outstanding situation.

The idea is rather than taking over new packages, just try to work on
whatever issue is most important at the time.
