the place for coordinating packaging work, but some seem to want to
use it for that and I don't really see it as being invalid. Some
folks just want to drop a specfile but don't really want to stick
around to maintain the package.
I sometimes do this (eg.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=434560)
really for packages which I would like to see or don't have the time
yet to package.
Debian has a concept of 'Intent To Package' and 'Request To Package'.
ITP in particular seems like a similar thing, and they are treated
like ordinary Debian bugs.
