Why to discuss such things if we all contributors can review packages and help maintainers to have their packages as per current packaging guidelines? The only problem I have seen while working on such reviews is that some maintainers find them low priority and did not respond. Sometime ago I decided to work on this and also wanted to clean spec myself and review the same package myself but our policies does not allow this. So I occasionally visit merge-reviews and try to finish them with the help of current package owner.
