[Pkg-privacy-maintainers] Request to join the privacy maintainer team

[Simon Josefsson]

Maybe it would make sense to move some of the Go packages in pkg-privacy
to the Go team?  Snowflake and some other Go projects in pkg-privacy
(goptlib, siphash, obfs4proxy, maybe others) could use some care from Go
packaging people.  We already moved edwards25519-extras and dropped
golang-ed25519 as a result of coordination with other Go packages.

I find the team joining process on salsa to be problematic.  I had no
idea about the quorum aspect, as it means a responsibility for all those
added to the pkg-privacy group to pay attention to membership
applications.  I forgot I even was a member, so +1 on the membership
application to help with the quorum.

Membership is here:
