The FTP Team has very recently made a call for volunteers [1], so perhaps they already have some plans?...

Anyhow, I wrote to weigh in on this particular comment, because, as a Debian Maintainer, I had only submitted two packages to the NEW queue. On both occasions, the FTP Team found licensing issues in the packages, even though I thought I had done a *really* great job of reading through the copyright notices, (specially for the second package). So, I'm glad the package had to be reviewed, even though I would had been happier if the process had taken less time, :). Cheers, Gabriel
