?I understand tha?t the team doesn't maintain any packages yet, i was just
pointing out that iptables's packaging (git repo) is already inside a team
controlled repo. (under pkg-netfilter, which i believe can receive commits
from alioth members).

?I'm not really sure i understood, you do not want me as a co-uploader?
I asked to be a co-uploader because sending patches is a lot more
bureaucratic than directly commiting to iptable's git repo., besides i see
no reason for that when i can work directly with you and Laurence,?
?and iptables could definitely ?use some help packaging (not just seasonal
patches), otherwise these changes would've been already made.
Please, i'm not trying to piss you off, that is a serious question.
?Regards,?
