When they live on alioth, I just name them using the source package name

When I clone them locally, I use a variety of different naming
conventions though, to distinguish them from the upstream packages

The package name is fine, you can look at the alioth gitweb to see
examples of how other people name their packages

Also, this is how the maintainer setup is done in debian/control:

Maintainer: Debian Authentication Maintainers
<address@hidden>
Uploaders: Simon Josefsson <address@hidden>
Vcs-Git: git://git.debian.org/pkg-auth/oath-toolkit.git
Vcs-Browser: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-auth/oath-toolkit.git;a=summary


and anybody who wants to participate has to both:

a) request to join via alioth:
https://alioth.debian.org/project/request.php?group_id=100821

and

b) subscribe themselves to the list:
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-auth-maintainers


(a) requires us to approve (as we are the group admins) and (b) is automated
