You're right, and I knew that.  The word "mainly" might have been not the right
one; sorry about that.  

I got curious about who exactly maintains how many r-cran packages currently in
testing/stretch, came up with this quick and (very!) crude hack:

joostvb@banach:~% for p in $( apt-cache search --names-only r-cran | \
 cut -d' ' -f1 ); do echo -n "$p "; apt-cache show $p | grep Maintainer; done | 
\
 cut -d' ' -f3- | cut -d\< -f2 | sed 's/^/</' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
