I wasn't aware of these, and they certainly look very interesting.

Hi mentors,
I'm in the process of preparing new packaging for GNS3.
Currently source package gns3 produces one binary package also named
gns3. The newer version of the software has been split into a separate
gui/server (separate source packages).
For the new packaging I prose the following:
Tasks

I see a task having, at least, the following properties:
* A specific objective (bug fix, enhancement, debugging, cleanup,
documentation, translation, ...). This should probably be tied to a
Debian bug number.
I would like for check-all-the-things to have support
Hi there,
I think this is a worthwhile idea, but would like to suggest that if
you're going to go down the approach of badges/accomplishments then it
would be good to consider how to encourage existing DDs to become
active in mentoring.
My experience is that making the package is the easy bit -
I agree, it is sometimes difficult to get someone to actually upload
your package.
Perhaps to encourage mentors, they too could get accomplishments for
sponsoring packages. There could even be a small prize for the DD who
sponsors the most packages in a given year.

Thanks for the pointer to this. i have looked at all those the sources
it provides, but it does provide a nice layout of the data.

Hey,
I totally agree with making the start in Debian simpler.
The Debian policy document is thick and very general.
I much prefer to have focused recipes for the tasks at hand. On these
recipes one could include links to specifc parts of the policy.
