Comment 40 for bug 420513

i'm definately for adding the metapackage to universe (even though requesting it early enough pre FF would have been a lot nicer) but i fully agree with scotts suggestion here, having an open and completely uncontrolled team anyone can subscribe to in control of the seeds seems very dangerous (anyone of that team can just add or remove apps from your seeds), it is like crying for problems or bzr "commit wars" where packages are added/removed back and forth out of disagreement ...

my suggestion would be to create a lubunbtu-developers team with a kind of developer council or other form of governance and keep the lubuntu team open as it is atm. then people wanting to join lubuntu-developers would have to go through a staging process through the open lubuntu team, prove they are trustable for some time and be added to lubuntu-developers by an admin/council/dictator (or whatever form you pick for governance)
lubuntu-developers in the end should own all code centric branches then
