I started contributing to Debian over a decade ago, with the initial upload of sabnzbdplus in 2009. Back then, my intent was mostly helping out the upstream developers of that project, so they could spend their time writing code rather than answering trivial questions about installing on Debian and derivatives. Over time more packages were added to 'my collection', for the most part dependencies and orphaned packages I are of interest to me.

These days, requiring sponsorship for each and every upload has become ever more cumbersome. Sponsors are in increasingly short supply, leading to large delays even when changes are very rarely requested. At the same time, not being in a position to do uploads myself also stops me from helping out others with sponsorship.
