What about doing something even simpler - rather than having additional
generic/core tags/teams/groups, for packages where one wants to say
"please help yourself/ourselves", simply set the Maintainer field to
debian-devel@lists.debian.org, have the Salsa repository in the debian/
namespace, and that's it? From thereon, anyone can do team-uploads by
pushing to salsa and uploading directly, no need for
acks/delays/permissions/requests.
A simpler solution sounds good to me, except that change would be
somewhat "permanent" in stating the original maintainer's preference.
I forgot to mention in my original post that the tags can optionally
expire.
So, things like, `tag all my packages as "feel free to nmu" within
the next two weeks` would be trackable.
