Dear all, there has been a lot of talk about the machine-readable format. The wiki page on which the proposal was started attracted almost 500 modifications, but for this reason became progressively unreadable with time. We (Steve Langasek, Noah Slater and I) are currently preparing a synthethic version as a DEP (Debian Enhancement Proposal) that addresses all comments sent to the page, and the ones sent to this list as well. The basis for establishing the list of DEP drivers was simply to contact the persons who volunteered in December's thread on debian-de...@l.d.o. Please contact us and accept our apologies if you think you have been forgotten.
The page on the wiki is not the place for modification anymore and has been marked as such. We are preparing the final draft on the subversion repository of Alioth's DEP group. Our work in progress is not secret work, everybody can have a look at it, but for the moment it would not be respectful for the time of the broad audience on debian-de...@l.d.o or debian-proj...@l.d.o to ask everybody to read and comment it. We are working everyday on making the draft becoming a real proposal. I hope that we can send an announcement on debian-devel-announce to start the formal DEP discussions soon. Have a nice day, -- Charles Plessy Tsurumi, Kanagawa, Japan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
