Hi Joerg, thanks for getting things moving. I have a question about the sources: for big datasets, would it be acceptable that the source package does not contain the data itself but only a script to download it? Since the source packages are not to be autobuilt and the binary packages only available through download, depending on Internet at build time seem to me to be acceptable. (The goal is of course to save space and upload time). (By the way, there is a short summary of last year's discussions on the wiki: http://wiki.debian.org/DataPackages) Have a nice day, -- Charles -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
