Let me clarify. I am not a Canonical employee (at least not yet) and I
think the only contributing to OpenStack packaging I have done has
been to *sync* some of Debian's packaging to Ubuntu and filing some
Debian bugs (like this email thread) to try to *reduce* differences
between Debian and Ubuntu.

To be maybe more clear than necessary, this was where I first saw the diff:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-openstackdocstheme/1.16.1-2ubuntu1

I believe those packages only started popping up in Debian unstable
very recently and Ubuntu 18.04 development has also only opened a few
days ago so Corey has had very little time yet to try to propose
changes back to Debian.

I do think starting this thread is an example of me "contributing to
Debian" and I'm sorry that so far you don't feel the same.

Thanks,
