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?"Learning by doing" and especially the part "*making errors* and learn from them" (¹) is IMHO important, especially for packaging. In other words: I don't think a IRC packaging tutorial will be a big help as those that will give that tutorial will probably be experts already and experts often forgot all those small errors they did in the beginning.
What if we're teaching by leading newbies through the packaging of actual orphaned/wishlist packages?
