I would like novices to be allowed to grab maintainership as well for the 
following 3 reasons:
 - easier as a padawan to check your packages and followup to see which have 
to be updated/backported
 - the day a padawan gets full packager, he would have to set all the 
packages, and it might not be easy to find them, or even alot of work, if the 
mentor has alot of them
 - bug reports would then be assigned to the mentor instead of the novice, 
which would perhaps give a bit more work towards mentor to notify his novice 
about it.

WDYT?
