If the DPL had done his job correctly, we would not have this current mess. He did not, and it is over a month ago now. I did try to play by the rule, each time to be humbled or rejected by Frans, making comments about "carefull, if you act like this, i will never give you your commit access again". This is the DPL's choice, and he is the representative of all of debian, and this by consequence makes it a debian matter, of which all DDs should be concerned with. In his sentence, in which he gave Frans full reason, without even addressing a single of the issues i mentioned, and not even considering at least two compromise proposal i made (not discussing any kind of d-i large scale technical issues, and only working on the small packages i knew nobody would work on, like partman-prep or the apus support was the one which seemed the most reasonable to me), he clearly mentioned that the only way to solve this was going through the TC (of which as i was told 3 members are already against me even without considering the issues) or a GR. I have gone to the TC, and it kind of didn't solve anything, and there is only this and a GR left to me. Do you think i should go the GR route ? I have tried to avoid it because it would be even more damaging than the current mess, but maybe i was wrong. Will you second me if i submited a GR to counteract the DPLs decision on this ? > Debian and *not* stumble upon one of these annoying threads.
