So at least that part can't be substituted for in this way. Yes, but that's a different conversation. Anand didn't say anything about getting a reason. The proposal was that packages be automatically rejected if no ftp-master approves it within two weeks. I don't understand how that helps anyone. You still don't get any explanation, and now there's not even a chance someone will find time to look at it. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
