Of course, but we could still create a list utnubu-and-motu at l.a.d.o
for maintainership of packages between Ubuntu and Debian. This doesn't
restrict in any way the scope of Utnubu ...

Not all packages hosted on collab-maint need to have the same
maintainer... and nobody will subscribe to the list if it just
contains mails related to random packages.
I have a very broad scope for collab-maint but I believe the "maintainer
list" should be something "local" to a given community/team/whatever.
Concerning commit notices, I want them to go to the PTS and everyone can
then receive them via the PTS (as well as bugs, and everything needed to
effectively help in the maintenance).
Cheers,
