It's fine; most of the time I'm sharing my advice on packaging without
contributing much to the actual implementations; I hope you don't mind
my obnoxious comments in random discussions either. :-)
However shlibs.local shouldn't be used anymore; this mechanism was put
in place when there were no shlibs in the archive to smooth the
transition.
This was brought up on debian-qa@ recently:

messages.
