Sure. I was refering to Steve's point about d-d-a being a list primarily targetted at DDs and a must-subscribe for DDs. I just don't feel that some non-DD can stand up and continue to demand changes that vocally if he's only a circumstantial part of the audience. Especially given the fact that there was no support for this cause from the target audience of the list. And then he claimed to be a Debian developer[1] which is untrue given the intended meaning DD. Everybody can speak here as long as he contributes something useful[2]. > The DD status doesn't grant any right to behave as a troll; I tend to think > it > rather imposes the contrary. Sure. I sort of realized that after sending my message that I should've said that. Full ACK. :) Kind regards Philipp Kern [1] The funny bit being that even the list page says "Debian developer" for the people whose messages are accepted. [2] Or funny, but that may be -curiosa material.
