In fact these are two separate issues: a) why the infrastructure doesn't use
these packages; b) where to collect P-a-s calls for updates. I just read at
#128280, that these calls for updates are not wanted as wishlist bugs against
quinn-diff package, but I think that storing them in public media i.e. BTS is
far most robust solution (reveals when wishlists have been filed, and how
have been dealt with), than just posting them to someone's mailbox... but
anyway I'd tend to comply with the maintainer choice as said in the buglog.
