Moreover, the question here is not what are good features to have, but what are the features necessary for SCC (or ports, or whatever it's called). Non-released ports don't need buildds run by the Debian system administrators, and don't need lots of them; the point is that porting teams need to be making real progress to be in SCC, but not done. So I'm mostly fine with the requirements as written, but the question still remains: What features, exactly, are meant by "firewalling support" in the requirement? (I know what firewalling is as a general thing, but not which specific features are desired.) And, why is firewalling support essential for SCC? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
