I've got no strong opinions on this, I just wanted to make sure I was
posting  in the right place.

I'll see what I can do...

While I was waiting for somebody to take the lead I quickly created a
page on the wiki
(http://wiki.xensource.com/xenwiki/DebianPackageMaintenance) and
temporarily linked to it from the top of the DebianSarge page (to make
it more obvious). I know that a wiki is not the long-term place to be
actually managing such an effort, but I thought it would be nice if
the people who have volunteered to help in various ways (or are
willing to) could make a quick note on that page so that we could have
some sort of starting point.

I also added your comment about the nightly snapshots to the wish list...

(If anybody has heard more from Adam, please post back to the list - I
did try to contact him, but I suspect it may have looked like spam.)
