Well, the problem is defining that very statement. We are having problems
tracking of who is in good standing at the moment. I don't think the number
of open bugs can be the criterion. I know that someone is working on
developing ways to find "virtual" maintainers. Hopefully, this will make
debian keyring contain the keys of active maintainers only, and then debian
keyring would be used as a way to check whether the person is indeed a
contributor to debian.

Well, the developers.debian.org part is not hard at all. I know that many of
us work for/own isp's. I am sure someone would love to provide their services
in this matter ;-)
