I will do so, but please run the list of repos by me before creation.
I'm following the lists of ITPs and I keep noticing packages that I'm
pretty sure are already in Debian.

I also got a request for membership recently from utkarsh without any
prior notice/explanation. Is that someone on this list?

I don't currently; I'd need higher levels of access on the Java Team to
do so.

Looks like ebourg, apo, and tmancill are the owners.[1]

Java Team owners, can you either give me enough access to transfer all
the Clojure repos out of the Java Team or would you accept a list to do
it for us?

Yes.

Can't, for reason stated above.

Once you file the version bump bugs I can try to divide and conquer
among interested parties.

Because most Clojure upstream projects use git, I tend to preserve the
upstream history in the Salsa repos because it makes patching, diffs,
etc. easier. This is slightly unusual and something to watch out for,
but I've documented this in our wiki and it should not add much
confusion for someone familiar with git.

I'm currently the only one with admin access on the Clojure team.[2]
