I also don't consider myself a "core" team member here, but those are
the two major service i'm aware of as well.

agreed.  do we have such a team?

I'd love to see more active discussion about how we deal with
DNS in debian directly.  Maybe not just "pkg-dns-devel", which sounds
like it's specific to packaging DNS-related tools, but overarching
questions about things like default DNS configurations, the use of
private DNS, and overall operating system integration between DNS and
other tools.

if there were a mailing list like that on lists.d.o, i'd join it.  I
don't have the bandwidth to organize that happening, though.

Do you think all the pkg-dns debian packages should go into the
collab-maint replacement?  or do you think there's any value to having a
separate pkg-dns group?  I would love to see the collab-maint
replacement become *the* place to host debian packaging, so i'm
currently leaning toward collab-maint itself, but i could be convinced
if other people have a strong argument for a pkg-dns collection of
repos.

what do people think?
