Well, "pushing it to the repos" is not the issue---it is that whoever
takes it up commits to maintaining it in the long run. If no one has
stepped up yet, I guess we don't have anyone at the moment who feels
they can assign resources to do this.

Community folks:

I totally understand the point of the system we have in place, but I do
see how it doesn't quite address the case of upstream developers or
individuals who'd just like to maintain their few packages. I do
understand that we'd like all package maintainers to participate in
general packaging activities, but at a practical level we mostly tend to
look after our packages and what emerges from this is that our
collective activities take care of the complete package set.

So, here, I'd rather have Joan, who is the developer and has been
actively engaging with the community to get the package included
(including going through the review), and so who I'd trust to look after
their package, on the team than not.

So, unless someone has really strong concerns about it, I'm going to
sponsor Joan to the packager group.
