No problem, I can strongly recommend asking lots of questions on debian-mentors, it's much better to find a group of people you can bounce ideas off than trawling through *all* the docs. https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMentorsFaq > One question: there are several packages that are related, have the same > maintainer and have the same upstream source repo, but in Debian have > separate source packages. Do I have to create a separate issue for each > package? Again, I'm not part of debian-input-method, so strictly speaking yes you would be following the rules to ITS every single package. However, that doesn't seem productive - once you've followed up on keyman, most teams would consider that enough for you to work on the other team packages just adding yourself to Uploaders. Ultimately if they all have the same upstream source, you may even decide it's a bit pointless to have all the different *source* package names. If you decide to consolidate, you'd want to look at the process for migrating binary packages i.e. versioned Replaces and Breaks.
