Misc has a proposal to solve this : the next first submitter to an

At least the one importing it should get it by default...
SO PLEASE SHOW YOU'RE WITH ME, and demonstrate to misc that we haven't
tried hard enough to make the packagers step in and become maintainers
:)
The objective for the 7 following days is to reach 2000 packages with a
maintainer (not counting perl packages, still). I will send you daily
results.
Done my job.
btw we're now at:
4431 nobody
4154 someone (inluding perl*)
1621 someone (not inluding perl*)
I have a script ready to set the last comittor (that's a full packager) as
maintainer. perhaps it can be activated before the GREAT PURGE.
That's quite ridiculous to assign someone a title of 'maintainer', if
he's not ready to assume to corresponding responsability for. As a user,
I prefer a package clearly labelled as 'unmaintained', than a package
with the name of someone who don't care at all.
