What space? We would merge the stuff and remove the old projects, do I
miss something here?

Sorry for my ignorance, which scripts?

If you speak about commit-email.pl and post-commit, I would have a
question!

definitely!

This is the open point, I would prefer (but I am the one who has to read
two lists ATM ;-) to have only one list for all the stuff. That was the
idea behind the adapted commit-email.pl/post-commit stuff so that
filtering out would be easy for people who are not interested in some
parts (I do this for the pkg-texlive already so that changes to lmodern
also go to debian-tetex-maint list, but not the rest).

CORRIEVORRIE (n.)
Corridor etiquette demands that one a corriedoo (q.v.) has been
declared, corrievorrie must be employed. Both protagonists must now
embellish their approach with an embarrassing combination of waving,
grinning, making idiot faces, doing pirate impressions, and waggling
the head from side to side while holding the other person's eyes as
the smile drips off their face, until with great relief, they pass
each other.
