Good to know.  This should be put in the wiki because I have been 
thinking about this too.

Another question: does your PUBLISH count if someone else built the 
packages, but you provided a patch or patches? (I'd say at least "half 
way", because a responsible package builder should have done some 
review on them, and you can provide QA for source integrity etc.)

And just to be sure: can one person give both a PUBLISH and later a 
VERIFY (very probably yes) ?
