I started to check in the dfsg- tarball and you remove it again from the svn... who should a team work on a package if they doesn't use the same tarball at all? After some weeks were silence and nothing happens. I decided to close *my* ITP (there were 3 ITPs for virtualbox... one was mine), without the team maintainance on alioth since the removal of the dfsg tarball shows me another time that this has no sense so. I spoke with you about the removal, but you doesn't listen to me at all. So sorry, I started to work further at it with a new team. > > To me this is clearly a hijack and I'd like to see a very valid > > reasoning for this behaviour. See above. You showed me several times that you wasn't able to team - maintain this package. You doesn't listened to me if I try to speak with you about this issue in IRC. Both ITPs were over a half year old... much time to finish this work. > I was removed unjustified from uploaders and just fixed that inital > error from Patrick. See above... this wasn't an error. We spoke yesterday (Sunday) about this issue in IRC and you ask me if you are allowed to reupload the 1.4.0 version with som minor fixes. I told you that I have against this strong objections. For people who can read german here a (small) part from the chat: ---- 09:12:56 panthera | wie ich sehe, hast du mich aus vbox entfernt. hast du was dagegen, wenn ich mich als uploader reinsetze und ein paar dinge poliere in 1.4.0svn4130-dfsg-2? 09:52:34 winnie | ja..

Sorry... I didn't see you in the vbox-devel channel over a loooong time period. At least: This issue is already fixed. I regulary speak with the upstream authors. But non the less this have to be fixed in debian too. I prepared an correct tarball which could be uploaded right after this one is removed.

However, if ftp-master do disagree, I'll can re-upload > 1.4.0, superseeding the 1.5.0 upload. See above. In my eyes this is clearly a hijack of the package. We both had ITPs for this package and you doesn't act for a long time. If I haven't uploaded it last week, I'm sure that nothing would have happened. I'll readd this entry to the changelog, yes. But I think a group maintaining with us both in this group would fail, since I reallly like to communicate everything quite intensive. Greetings Patrick -- .''`.
