Woo-hoo!  This team is already rocking!  I'm always happy to have more 
eyes (and debdiffs) on the security issues in universe.  A bunch of 
-security uploads have already gone through as a result of motu-swat 
attention.  :)

One thing I'd like to figure out is some way to publicize universe 
security updates more widely.  One place that collects the "recent 
package updates" is the Ubuntu Weekly Newsletter.  There's a Security 
Updates section which catches USNs (for main), and an Updates section 
which catches notifications sent to the $RELEASE-changes mailing list, 
but since security uploads are done kind of side-ways, they seem to 
bypass the -changes mailing lists (and as a result, the Newsletter).

Thanks motu-swat!  :)
