Like many have noted, it would be a nice way to give something back to Debian, but it's more than that. It would be very useful for Ubuntu itself, as many of us who work on Ubuntu maintain packages directly in Debian as well. It could be used as a tool for us to help get our packages sponsored, ect.... It also is giving upstreams that use LP another way to distribute their packages.

I can't imagine any technical problem with doing this. The only issues would be buildd machines and hosting space. Any word if this is being seriously considered?
