Why do I always find things to do that I can't do myself ?
Be sure that if I could have done it myself, it would already be done.
In fact, I can overrule your decision.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=sponsorship
I can subscribe debian-mentors via the PTS and have the thing going. But
it would be so simpler if you were not so obstinated...

I responded to the objections, read the bug log again. And I gave
several reasons why the BTS entry is way better than the current CGI.
If you read both thread, you'll see that objections are not very
serious.

I'm always open to better idea and I can admit that other people have
better idea than me... but nobody came up with anything better.
The complaints are esthetic (some think it integrates better in the
nm.debian.org page but nobody is willing to code it ...). I have not
seen any real ojection explaining that what I propose would not work.

Cced you because i'm not sure that you're on -newmaint or in -mentors.
