... how you come to the idea to dictate a policy?!?!?! And: *If* we (all the teams and maintainers) ever agree on one mailing list, then it will definitely not be an Alioth list. debian-science exists.
I understand the RFC as an attempt to find a common ground for packaging of those packages that use Maintainer: Debian Science Team <debian-science-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org> It is just helpful to have some rules. Packages who have a different maintainer do not need to follow this policy but are invited to bring in their experience if they notice technical details which might be enhanced in the RFC.
