I agree. I went ahead and started a draft of a team policy including this as the Maintainer address [1]. It's just a fork of the Debian Science policy and still needs a lot of work. The source is at [2]. Please feel free to suggest/make changes!
[Probably the mailing-list should exist first]See bug#998244 and consider replying to it please, so as to raise interest in creation of this mailing list.
Yes, please do! :) Doug [1] https://math-team.pages.debian.net/policy/ [2] https://salsa.debian.org/math-team/policy
