We just have to be careful that we never allow a psuedopackage which
will be a package, and vice versa. This requires coordination between
ftpmasters and owner@b.d.o, but that's presumably fairly trivial.
[That ftpmaster were in charge of pseudopackages is likely for
hysterical raisins.]
But in any event, I think ftpmaster are in violent agreement about
this fact, and it's just a matter of the fiddly bureaucratic bits.
