Sorry. I'm actually using "ADOPT" to mean `taking responsibility for fixing
this bug', although I probably should mention that somewhere...

Sounds reasonable.

Someone was talking about a policy for this ages ago, I forget who, or
what the details were. I think just leaving the maintainer as debian-qa,
and putting your own name in the changelog with a standard version
number (foo-x instead of foo-x.y), was the recommended way.
The key that debuild will choose for you is the same as the name in the
changelog.
