So perhaps we need to come up with some more structure for the bug parties. 
Perhaps the right thing to do is have those involved create diffs of their work
and place these in a repository for some group of devels responsible for the
party to look at.  Once the patch has been approved, a NMU can happen in short
order.

This would prevent the NMUers from doing things like debhelper/debconfizing
packages without the maintainer's consent, as well as keep NMU bugs down.
