This was a request from ftpmaster so that they had a contact point for
each package in the case of any problems.  If they're happy for this
requirement to be removed for d-i packages, we're happy to update Policy
accordingly.  Presumably the d-i team is the contact for anything related
to udebs, so that may fulfill their requirement.  (If they're unhappy, we
should talk more about it.)
