My experience is that dealing with bodhi and even multiple releases is a
relatively small part of the time required for maintaining a package.
Based on my experience, I can't see the process for doing updates being
something that would drive away a signiciant number of maintainers. It might
be a significant barrier for new packagers if it seems overwhelming.
