If there are other ways we can recognize people's work, we should
consider them :)  Think of it this way though, a packager is a person
who packages.  The value is in the verb, not the noun; packaging is an
ongoing process.  We should reward the process, via NEWS, and perhaps in
other ways.

Besides, no one wants to be the person that removes a name from a list
of a package's packagers!
