IIRC from discussions in the past, HP package maintainers will continue to
maintain their packages as they see fit. Inclusion in the HP raises the bar
slightly on doing your best to avoid breaking code (maintaining backwards
compatibility wherever possible and doing a proper deprecation cycle
wherever not), but I'd like to think that we generally nominate
high-quality packages with responsible maintainers who are aware of these
issues.
