I notice that our packaging system has more and more posts lately.

After the current dust around the list management settles down, we might  
want to do a new sublist, debian-devel-packaging, to deal with stuff like  
dpkg, dpkg-dev, debmake, and so on.

Posted to both -private and -devel; I suggest we continue on -devel.
