That's not quite true - you need to be a developer in order to propose
or second proposals. Although I'd say that people doing that
on policy: our policy people should have
experience of their subject matter, otherwise it's just so much
unimplementable hot air (note that Manoj, Julian, Santiago, Anthony, et
al are experienced packagers). To that end, Beiad's packaging skills
seem more relevant.

My alternative theory is that some piece of possibly-malware is setting

that happens to be running nginx on Debian. I have no actual proof of
thi

archive administrators, and not necessarily updated in packages to

primary archive's behaviour, then you need to fetch the appropriate
override files from the "indices"

though, and I cannot fix anything there; reassigning to www.debian.org
since the web site maintainers deal with this.

"Prospective" versus "prospectively" are just adjectival and adverbial

I'm afraid not. Write a script to do the unsubscription and
