If you will keep the tradition for you personal experiments using different
package names, I do not see any reason what not to offer your PPA as a
possibility on our web.

I was not asking for promises but tentative outlook and this looks good in
my opinion.

Unless some other objections appear, I think adding this option on our web
would be helpful for some users, Liviu's "official" PPAs were not more
official than yours and they are unlikely to come back.
