Exactly.
I'm not sure this follows.
Is the true statement, "we need to get new people into the game via
co-maintainership"? Or is it, "we need to get new people into the game"?
These are two different statements.

So let me approach this from a different tack. I think we've got two
major issues to resolve:
1. Making it crystal clear what packages need help, in whatever category:
orphaned, possibly orphaned, poorly maintained, on a wish list.
2. Making it dead easy for new packages to contribute. At this point,
I think this means *actively* training packagers.
I think we're trying to solve problem 2 with co-maintainership -- and I
don't think that's necessarily the right approach.
What about an IRC teach-in? What if we had a couple of packagers who,
once a month or so, took a couple of hours to run a packaging tutorial in
real time?
