I'm not sure ubuntu-motu is the right list for this. Some MOTUs prefer
not to care about Debian and might find it disturbing to receive mails
from katie, from the BTS, etc. utnubu-discuss seems Ok to me, or we
could create another list in the collab-maint project just for
maintainership, and keep this list for discussion of more general
Ubuntu/Debian collaboration.
