Even then, there might be different ways of implementing a bug
fix -- and thus my input should still be sought. After all, I'll be
the one who has to live with the code.
What about fixes for bugs that would have been labelled
wontfix were I had been given time to ofer an input? Not all
reported RC bugs are indeed that, or warrant a fix.
I see no real reason for cutting the maintainer out of the NMU
loop, even if they are not a team -- which is why provisions for
keeping the maintainer in the loop are a Good Thing™.
