If I'm sponsoring someone, I will always recommend very strongly that
they should join the NM queue; I don't necessarily mind if they aren't
in it yet, but I think they should apply to be a full-fledged developer
if they're going to maintain packages. If nothing else, I usually don't
want to sponsor the package until the end of time.
