        Urk. I find this confusing (perhaps I have far too set an idea
 about what a maintainer is).

             Every package must have exactly one valid email
             address. This email address may point to an individual
             maintainer, or it may be a mailing list. In either case
             the entity pointed to (the individual or the mailing
             list) is responsible for ensuring that the license of the
             package's software complies with the policy of the
             distribution this package is included in.

 Don't expect people to keep in step--it's hard enough just staying in
 line.
