Oh, I know! Me and Daniel have been talking in #debian-x about the missing
Marcelo. I know the packages aren't hurting for maintainers, I just want to
have exactly what I'm working on in svn so people can see what's going on.
I don't have any intention of uploading them to the actual Debian archive
unless it becomes necessary to move the modular packages in. I'll probably
delete the mesa and libdrm files once the necessary versions are in Debian,
but for now it's mainly a convenience thing for myself and anyone else who
wants to actively work on the packages (Julien has been making some headway
on them as well). 

I'm on the mesa packaging list now also, so we can discuss it there if it
becomes necessary.

I won't be hijacking anything without discussing it extensively with
everyone first. Again, I *really* don't want to hijack the packages or
anything like that. I just want to keep the momentum going with the modular
packages. Once we get to the point where uploading the modular packages to
experimental looks attractive, that's when I'm going to start worrying
about an NMU or whatever for mesa.

Not quite there yet but I'll let you guys know :-)
