ACK.  My personal policy is to sponsor only packages from some team
space in Salsa for various reasons, mainly because:
  1. The sponsee should feel connected to some team to make me as
     sponsor "replaceable" by other team members.
  2. Its way easier if I commit some slight changes to Git myself and
     write extensive commit messages than asking the sponsee to do
     change XY and move it to mentors again.
 
I'm fine with using some sub-namespace (never worked with this in other
teams but it might be appropriate here).

Kind regards
    Andreas.
