Yes, it is, or at least is not a bad thing. pkg-ocaml-maint is a
repository just for collectively maintained packages or for maintainers
that wants someone else to work on those packages.
I've many packages on my laptop which are not on pkg-ocaml-maint and
that's definitely not a problem. The same applies to John's package IMO.
In the past I used to keep those packages also on pkg-ocaml-maint, but
this turned out to be a problem due to syncing issues.

This would be great, but only if John is willing to have someone also
working on his packages, otherwise it's completely useless.

Why? Users have "apt-get source" and this is enough IMO.
Cheers.
