Games Team's opinion on "Team uploads"

[Juhani Numminen <juhaninumminen0@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

There is a rather short paragraph about Team uploads in Developers
Reference:
http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#nmu-team-upload

I would like to ask, does one have to add his/her name to Uploaders when
doing that kind of team upload?

> If it conforms with your team's policy, you can perform a normal
> upload without being listed directly as Maintainer or Uploader.

Does this actually conform? The following is what our wiki pages say:

http://wiki.debian.org/Games/Policy#uploading_packages 
> Set the Maintainer field to "Debian Games Team
> <pkg-games-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org>" and add yourself to the
> Uploaders field.

http://wiki.debian.org/Games/Guidelines#Uploading
> If you want to add yourself to the packages Uploaders, mention
> that in your notification and do so if nobody objects.
This hints that adding name to Uploaders in optional.

I think that it should not be necessary to add name to Uploaders, if
not intended to help the package in question regularly.
