ok.

I have organized many packaging workshops over the years. I don't grant
access to any one just because they attended an event. I have granted
them access only because I am convinced they qualify to get this access.

They learned how to make a package lintian clean, how run a clean build
using sbuild, make patches using quilt, how to repack. They did all this
by themselves on 3-4 packages that was already packaged before they
started with a new package.

We do not have such rules for accepting a first package or granting them
access to a project. I was only following the convention we have set for
this team.

I make a fuss because you are acting arbitrarily, making up policies and
rules on the go.
