I stil see little of any value in this piece of prosa. Isn't FESCo's job 
to make procedures and guidelines to govern the project? Not write 
opinion articles for fwn?

Don't get me wrong co-maintainership can be a good thing, and we might 
need some infrastructure to facilitate this. What we do not need is a 
bunch of useless rules dictating people to search for co-maintainers.

I maintain a 100+ packages and would love to have one or more CAPABLE 
co-maintainers, but in my experience a lot of FE contributers have 
pretty sub standard (my standard that is) packaging skills and allowing 
them to modify my packages will only create more work not less.
