I think that in the teams where I participate, it makes sense to have no
Uploader field in packages where nobody wants to have them in their developers
dasboard (as opposed to the teams dasboard).
But if that is putting too much pressure on other teams, maybe I will
propose to just add this to our routine update scripts:
grep -q '^Uploaders:' debian/control ||
cme modify dpkg-control "source Uploaders=\"$(dpkg-parsechangelog -S
Maintainer)\""
And leave it to the team members to remove themselves from the Uploader field
in the VCS whenever they want.
Have a nice day,
Charles
