Hello,

  While browsing for RC bugs to fix, I found that it is not easy to
find bugs which are fixed by the maintainer but in need of a
sponsor. What do you think about implementing a 'needsponsor' tag that
would precisely mean that ?

  It could be a simple tag, or even a more complex object like the
'forwarded' system, where the maintainer could enter an URL for the
fixedpackage's .dsc file (for instance on mentors).

  How do you like that ?

  Cheers,

	Vincent

PS: I quickly browsed over bugs of debbugs and bugs.debian.org and I
couldn't find any title related to sponsor. I hope I didn't miss something.

reassign 513820 bugs.debian.org
thanks

Sponsorshop requests should be made on debian-mentors@l.d.o; the BTS
isn't really the place to indicate them.

That said, it'd be pretty easy to figure out which bugs could possibly
be filled by a sponsorship upload by looking for bugs which are tagged
pending and aren't fixed in unstable, but don't have maintainers or
uploaders who are DDs or DMs.
