_Some_ of my packages (hence "partly") have been re-used, and this doesn't
bother me at all, I was just pointing the fact out. A quick glance shows
that of the 550 Extras package I have the build files from, about 70 were
directly based on packages I made, with the changelog kept intact from the
point they were re-used.

And that includes spec files where your name appears in an arbitrary
location.
$ cd ../testing
$ find . -name \*.spec | wc -l

Some others (hard to tell how many, and definitely
not worth bothering digging to know) were re-used with the changelog reset
(alsa stuff, apt... haven't looked further than "a" ;-)).
Ah, that's your theory. I think e.g. alsa packages and a few others,
were rewritten beyond recognition.
