I'm running testing as well and I think that's OK.

Thanks for your helpful analysis.

Feel free to ping me in CC - I'm perfectly willing to sponsor packages
also in other teams.  I'll check the list right now.

Sponsoring your fine work does not much time and is really important to
me since it solves issues in our packages.  BTW, if you might find some

outdated since some time and also needs love. 

Thanks again for your effort
