This touches on an issue I wanted to raise.  Does the LDC project 
offer email addresses to its contributors?  If so, would it be 
possible for the LDC project to create an email address for me to 
use with the Ubuntu Developer login?  One that I'd have access to 
but which would be under the project's control?

I ask because while I can obviously create an account using an 
arbitrary email address and just share the developer account 
password, I'd feel more comfortable if there was an easy path for 
other LDC project members to take control of things if I slip on 
Berlin's icy streets and wind up underneath a car ;-)

Sounds good.  If someone wants to set up an `ldc2.snap` repo 
there and give me push rights, I'll push a minimal collection of 
commits with the basic package definition.
