IMHO there are 2 points to an ITP: * to save effort in case two people might be working on the same package * to invite discussion on debian-devel / elsewhere If people post an ITP and upload iummediately, then I don't think that helps on either count. If the only reason for the ITP is to make lintian quiet then I think that's a total waste of time - it's following a guideline blindly without understanding the reason for it.
