What causes a package to move?  I guess it doesn't just happen
spontaneously, so presumably it's a choice the maintainer makes.

If so, why would they do that?  Why would they *not* want their package
to be available as a regular package?  It seems counterproductive for
them to downgrade their package to this second-class status.
