wouldn't it be better to do the bumps of major ESR versions in point

I request an adopter for the logwatch package.
I won't have enough time to make logwatch ready for lenny. The biggest
issue in logwatch is that upstream has not really been aware of the need

But Windows security advisories don't contain debian packages. Ubuntu
does contain close to all debian packages, and (I hope) most DDs have an
interest to include improvements of other distributions in their
packages (at least I do).
Maemo (from the Nokia 770 fame) contains Debian packages.
Windows security advisories are surely important to quite a few
people, and probably to more readers of -devel-announce than Ubuntu
stuff. Are you saying that it would be okay to post these? If not,
then you need to rethink your reasoning here. Personally, I don't

I think this is wrong.
The readme file states:

This fails DFSG, paragraph 3.
