I already have, as far as possible with my own machines. Debian, however,
consists of slightly more architectures than are currently available in my
computer room. I also assume that the security team's source packages are
located somewhere other than http://smurf.noris.de/code/debian/testing/;
furthermore, they probably want the official security stuff to live on a
Debian-administered system.
To clarify: I wouldn't need help actually doing it, but somebody would
have to add me into a few groups / add my ssh pubkey to a few more files,
before I'd be able to *start* doing it *again*, but this time in a way
that's actually of benefit tto Debian, instead of just my personal
playroom.

If the people who are currently allowed to do the work were indeed doing
it, I would agree with you. After a month of no visible progress WRT t-s,
however, I'd say that they are not.
