I agree that this team is quite suitable place for maintaining 
javascript packages, even if bundled upstream with other frameworks.

And yes , it is plain wrong to ship the galleria.io as part of sigal 
project: It is just not part of that project!  So even if you choose to 
not maintain it in this team, you will still need to maintain it as a 
separate package tied to its own separate upstream.

Specifically, however, I decline to help look after galleria.io 
packaging, however - I am involved in way too many packages already.

Any others in this team wanting to help and team up with Peter?
