I'd already raised this possibility before (moving non-free out of Debian
but to some other SPI project). It doesn't have to be third-party
developers; it could be Debian developers. I don't think it should use
debian.org if it's not a Debian project. Nothing in my proposed GR would
prohibit this.

It must feel good to totally ignore a large chunk of Debian developers.
