Thanks, you are right here. I just think that sometimes maintainers are
even too busy to ask for help. I just faced this when I asked for permission
for an NMU for a package of a maintainer who scores quite high in the list
mantioned above. He even asked me to take over the package because he
is so busy. So I think it is no real schame to be high on the list, but it
would be a schame if we as the Debian project would not be able to handle
a problem. And yes, you are right, titling the maintainers as bad or worst
is not the right attribute.
Kind regards
Andreas.
