I keep forgetting filling an ITP.  It is usually caught on final review
because for some reason lintian is not being run by default by my
packaging chain :-(

I find the ITP/wnpp annoying as well. I usually end up browsing
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/ , opening all links then searching for
my package :-]   I then bootup an instance and try to remember to report
the bug against the 'wnpp' package.

But I am a newcomer, so I am easily confusing / forgetting rules :)
