[Pkg-auth-maintainers] Winding down pkg-auth-maintainers?

Hi

I've been migrating out from the pkg-auth-maintainers group for many
packages that I have some history or relation ship with, and I think it
would be nice to complete migrating away the remaining packages too.

Remaining packages are:

https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=team%2Bauth%40tracker.debian.org

My suggestion is to:

1) Move all Go-related to the Go team.  By moving I mean to move the
Salsa project, update Vcs-* URLs and make a new upload.

2) Move all non-Go packages to the pkg-security team.

3) Prefer moving to Salsa /debian/ namespace, to reduce risk of future
need for Salsa namespace moves.

4) If the Salsa project cannot be moved (e.g., yubikey-agent which
someone already made a copy of in the Go team), mark the project as
Archived after making a new upload.

I think the Go and pkg-security teams are more health teams, and should
be open for membership to everyone interested in working on "our"
packages.

Any thoughts or opionions on this?
