It was never our intention to abuse any process. I understand your point
and acknowledge that наб and I unintentionally exceeded the intended
scope of the ITS specification. I'm not a native speaker, but to me, the
term "abuse" implies bad intent, which was never the case. We tried to
prevent packages from becoming unmaintained, and I stand by the fact
that we have successfully done so. If the ITS process is not the right
one, we may need a new process. However, an arbitrary bug report is not
the appropriate place to discuss this.

As I said in my other mail the initial goal was far from "creating
facts". We were a bit overwhelmed by what we've found. It might be
sensible to release several packages from Salvage Team to Debian QA
Group in the long run.
For the moment I see no actual harm done since packages in the Salvage
Team space are as open for anybody to do a team upload as Debian QA
maintained packages with the additional advantage that you find these on
one place on Salsa.
Am I missing something?
Kind regards
Andreas.
