Hi.  Sorry I've been ignoring this once again :(
I think it would be fine for Jonathan to be the primary packager.

I looked at the newest spec file and I read through the Emacs
packaging draft.  Looking good!

Going back to the bbdb-autoloads.el question -- I think the reason that
this is in site-start.d is so that the autoloads will be evaluated at
Emacs startup (see site-lisp/site-start.el).  This means that the user
doesn't have to add an explicit require or anything to their .emacs to
start using BBDB.  I was wrong about this back in comment #10.  (FWIW
this is mentioned in the packaging guidelines.)

In my copy of the latest RPM, bbdb-autoloads.el ends up in site-lisp/bbdb/.
So, I think it should be moved again.

BTW ... BBDB and VM requiring each other seems pretty ugly!  Perhaps one or
the other could be fixed upstream.
