Splitting a package--reviews needed?

[Quentin Spencer]

I am the maintainer of octave-forge, a set of add-on packages for 
octave. The structure of the source package has been changed to separate 
it into a number of sub-packages. I think it would be a good idea to 
follow this structure in the Fedora package, particularly since some 
sub-packages have external dependencies that not all users may really 
need. The octave-forge package would become a meta-package that just 
installs all of the sub-packages. The question here is, should each of 
the new sub-packages be subject to its own review? It's a total of 
almost 40 packages, considerably more than I currently maintain, and I'm 
worried that this will significantly increase the time commitment, which 
I'm not sure I can do. Is there anyone out there who has a particular 
interest in any of the octave-forge sub-packages who may be interested 
in maintaining it?
