Do we have a security team who evaluate security issues that are filed

unreponsive maintainer process. Proven packagers obviously have suitable
CVS commit privileges to make the changes, but do any of them actively
monitor for security issues & address them ?
Yes. Security team did monitor and filed the security issue but they
don't do commits and builds and there is no team outside of them taking
care of these issues. It would be great to take care of this.
