Yes, I was. But Sven was thinking more about gathering our packaging
in a single project, I think.

I agree about a task force for packages we maintain (co-maintainership),
but agree less for additional packages that noone use (I mean none
of the maintainers use them). I we have interest in packages, we
better maintaine them, don't we?
If non maintainers want to maintain packages that no debian developer
maintains, I think there are possibilites for them to open a project.
