I wanted to set you "Owner" of the Debian Med team repository since this
is the maximum power.  I realised you are owner.  So either someone has
beaten me and just did so or something is wrong if you can't do what you
want to do.

I've seen packages where this is ignored.  If you want to approach this
and need helping hands just ask here.

I admit I do not understand the problem but I have put Pierre in CC.


A comment to your question in your other mail:  Sorry, I have no idea
how to teach CI to pick from experimental.  On the other hand I do not
think it should stop us from uploading if CI will fail as long as some
preconditions are in experimental.  In my local pbuilder which I'm using
to run autopkgtests I'm feeding the needed version of a package into the
local pbuilder repository.

Hope this helps

    Andreas.
