I'm curious - why do you think that our process can't scale for fixing bugs and releasing? There's plenty of scope for more people to join in and help fix them. Many people have, in fact, done so. I have a great deal of sympathy for Holger's attitude - an important part of Debian for me is achieving releases and I'd *hope* that most people would agree with that. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com "I can't ever sleep on planes ... call it irrational if you like, but I'm afraid I'll miss my stop" -- Vivek Dasmohapatra -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
