+1.

Michele's application is the most complete I
recall. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MicheleAngrisano/PackagingActivities
lists all debdiffs as far as I can see and the selection I just reviewed
looks very good to me. Michele definitely knows his stuff.

Also I like how Michele wants to help out with sponsoring and QA efforts
in Universe.

Excellent! Thanks for your work in the team!

Have a nice day,
 Daniel
