No, from my point of view it is not enough. I have no way to keep track of the sponsorship work. I have a recent case of someone who NMU'ed packages of someone I do sponsor but I wasn't aware of that. I would like an entry point for communicating with the sponsoree so I can get informed about such events. The BTS plus the PTS provide what I need currently. So, I want the sponsorship managed through the BTS. -- Jérôme Marant
