Yes, I'm willing to volunteer. I will do so in a few days if no-one
objects.
I'll double check the facts of course. If I have also see if I can
understand the situation in each case well enough to make a
recommendation. It seems at the very least that many of these issues
are "within" a particular family of packages. Hopefully they won't
mostly be as bad as "node".
