Moreso when people have direct upload access to both and can therefore cause delta to be reduced themselves. (Message: Encourage Ubuntu Developers to get upload privileges in Debian and vice-versa) + Some success in pushing people from MOTU to Debian when they arrive with new packages. I still have the feeling that getting people integrated with a team's workflows is inevitably difficult though — encourage teams to write FAQs for newbies. - Frantic pace of development means that patches are often not forwarded or that waiting the extra day or two for a Debian sponsor is not considered possible. - Limited success in getting people to do QA uploads (script which monitors derivative uploads to orphaned packages and hassles people to submit upstream?) o Encourage people to keep track of patches they submit upstream and seek NMUs if warranted.
