I haven't done anything with this yet; qa-list.txt is still just errors
and warnings. I'm leaning towards adding info, experimental, and override
counts to the same file, since the only thing I knew for sure was using it
isn't running. However, it looks like qa-list.txt has been unchanged
since before 2004, so I'm still a bit nervous that I might break something.

Supporting Uploaders isn't too difficult, but it requires changing the
file format of lintian's package lists, which makes it tricky to test on
lintian.d.o. I may get to it anyway, though. If it doesn't make this
release, it will be in the next one.
I don't think we've resolved the issue around parsing the Uploaders list
given the presence of Adam C. Powell, IV. I plan on splitting on comma,
which is going to break for him. Ah, but I see that the one package for
which he's an Uploader, he dropped the comma.
