it's not the first time such a question is raised, I did that recently enough, for a foo-package I don't even remember (some python messages that bounced to me). that is completely inadequate, and whitelisting any @bugs.debian.org From address is trivial. I've already stated it, and I do it again: I do consider ok that the Maintainer field of some co-maintained package is a list, that really makes sense, but *that* list should never ever use sender-based moderation. When some bug report barfs at me with moderation messages, I just stop sending bug reports. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O [EMAIL PROTECTED] OOO http://www.madism.org
