Note that I did not flaunt my deeds to the new maintainer team. My nightly emails would have been a part of a normal developer updating his fellow maintainers. I was perfectly content to keep all those debs in a staging area, while I waited for an account, as I knew the work would eventually be placed in debian. To restate, I did the work, not because I wanted to get in to debian, but because the work had to be done, and no one else was working on those packages at the time.~ ----BEGIN GEEK CODE BLOCK---- Version: 3.12 GCS d- s: a-- c+++ UL++++ P+ L++++ !E W+ M o+ K- W--- !O M- !V PS-- PE++ Y+ PGP++ t* 5++ X+ tv b+ D++ G e h*! !r z? -----END GEEK CODE BLOCK----- ----BEGIN PGP INFO---- Adam Heath <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Finger Print | KeyID 67 01 42 93 CA 37 FB 1E 63 C9 80 1D 08 CF 84 0A | DE656B05 PGP AD46 C888 F587 F8A3 A6DA 3261 8A2C 7DC2 8BD4 A489 | 8BD4A489 GPG -----END PGP INFO-----
