+I'm not against of that. I believe it could be a good way out
+when people leave or can't/stop to work on their packages. Missing
+all members of a team is a little bit harder :D
+
+I know some people prefer being the only owner, we could decide
+case by case but finding packages that can be part of a group and
+a team that can manage it could help either in bug management.
+
+Easy groups could be for instance:
+kde
+gnome
+developer libraries
+toolchain & co.
+
+But the real problem is that some packages could lay
+on more than a group. For insntace, game and kde games
+or educational and some games... and so on.
+
+I thought that a first try could be to have mentor and their
+padawans seen as a team to maintain packages they've released
+togheter. From that it should be easy to move maintainership
+from one team member to another. But as ennael said that
+could be more work for mentors.
+
+So i don't have a real solution :) but something to discuss on...
+
