Hi!

now in mentors.d.n are only packages that needs a sponsor. Is this
normal? then, the column about "needs a sponsor" is not needed.

My understanding is, that it can be used to request reviews aswell: when
a package is mostly done, but is not ready for upload yet, but the
maintainer wishes to receive input from others, before preparing the
final version, ready to get sponsored.


Also, some package maintainers work as part of a team and already have
a DD willing to sponsor their packages, and they simply need a place
to host their source package so their sponsor can review and upload
their packages.

Umm,

I meant that in the webpage (http://mentors.debian.org) shows only the packages that needs a sponsor.
