No worries. It feels so awkward to work on packaging yet another container 
engine (a third one for me) but that's insane Golang volatility for you... ;)

Here is packaging repository:

  https://salsa.debian.org/debian/libpod

I guess I've never noticed as I always open the following page and search for 
packages on it:

  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?dist=unstable;package=wnpp

Splendid. :)

For now let's maintain libpod/podman under "debian" name space (formerly 
known as collab-maint"). From my experience, a special private group like 
"Docker" does not work well enough on Salsa. IMHO there is no reason to have 
podman-team. Most if not all of libpod's build dependencies should be 
maintained under Golang team anyway and maybe even libpod itself.

I recommend to maintain "conman" under "debian" umbrella as well.

Good luck happens when preparedness meets opportunity.
