Chopping some overengineering out of debtags.debian.net is something I could actually have fun with. I also hope that by freeing myself from some commitments, I can have fun with some of my todo list items on nm.d.o and contributors.d.o. I still would like not to be alone with the responsibility for them.

For each web service, we could use at least a list of maintainers and a (private) address that goes to the maintainers, which can be used for things like contact information on html <meta> tags, page footers, cron emails, and error notifications from the site[1].
