Hi, I, genuinely, hope that these removals-warnings will make people fix bugs pro-actively rather than reactive. From my PoV, more visibility and focus on these bugs is welcome. However, I know from experience that I will not be able to maintain a manual "friendly reminder" (at least not in a timely/reliable fashion), which is why I made this a one-time thing. You (as in anybody) are more than welcome to implement a weekly-reminder thing or so. Not sure if people would welcome such a thing on debian-devel, but having some way of at least opt-in on such a reminder/warning would be a great idea. That said, as much as I think it is a great idea I cannot volunteer to do it. I already have a sufficient "d-release" backlog ... :-/ Even the current implementation was "out-sourced". On a related note, kudos to Ivo De Decker for being the "Do'er" behind automatic removals! ~Niels -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
