I asked, and was told "those are just autocreated persons based on the
email address". I think you'd be best creating a separate team.

No need for that. In fact you don't even need a Launchpad team as such
unless you have some specific need - it won't go into ACLs anywhere. You
can use a Launchpad team to host VCS, but as you're using Salsa, that
won't be necessary either.

You could be fine declaring that a team exists but deferring the
creation of anything representing that in Launchpad until later when
it's actually needed if you prefer. Or you can create it in Launchpad
now if you want to give it some firm basis. Your choice.

Launchpad teams also allow you to host mailing lists, but I recommend
using ubuntu-motu@ for getting started, again splitting off later if
needed if things get too busy.

HTH,
