My comments on Christian's proposal (which is very good, thank you christian):
>TOPIC 1: policy for user and group ids (uids, gids) Wouldn't it be better to start the user uid range with 100 as most other Unices do? >TOPIC 4: editor/pager policy What is the benefit of /usr/bin/sensible-{editor,pager}? Why don't we just default to EDITOR=/usr/bin/vi and PAGER=/usr/bin/more if both variables are unset? (auch, don't beat me) >TOPIC 11: policy about including documentation Ship info as default. Make a <package>-texi from which texi2html can create html sources. > - how "large" may doc files be until they are moved into a > seperate package? 500k?
