Thanks for the clarification. For SRU it isn't too hard to work with
sponsorship either. I am happy to sponsor your changes, I'll read all
bug mail where ~ubuntu-sru is subscribed anyway. This would be a good
path towards upload rights IMHO.

With you being a long-term DD I agree that a straight core-dev should
be considered. I am not so much fussed about MOTU vs. core-dev, but
rather seeing some Ubuntu contributions/SRUs from you, to see that you
understand the Ubuntu specific processes.

Thanks!

Martin
