That would require that the tech-ctte's decisions do not take months or years. They are fast if they really need to be, but in such general cases the time a descision takes is imho way too long and frustrating for all involved people. I would prefer a solution which involves the ctte only if there is no other way. -- Bernd Zeimetz Debian GNU/Linux Developer http://bzed.de http://www.debian.org GPG Fingerprint: ECA1 E3F2 8E11 2432 D485 DD95 EB36 171A 6FF9 435F -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
