Hi, Jonas.

If a zope-maintainer group were created, I'd join it, but I'm not sure
it'd be any better than what we've already got with
pkg-zope-developers.

Luca (and Gregor before him) were always willing to accept good
patches and NMUs, and all of us should (when we can) spend more time
fixing bugs in zope and the other packages we care about (including
mine!).

So, i'm ambivalent.  More structure doesn't necessarily lead to more
progress, but I doubt it would slow anyone down.
