Probably because even at that time there were procedures that weren't followed, and apparently nobody after then bothered to check your status *and* follow up appropiately to clean it up. > even though my wi...@debian.org email address was deliberately forwarded > to a non-functional email address (in part because of the complete > catastrophe that was the Debian spam filtering system at the time). I don't know what happened back then to your forwarding address (for however strange your statement looks to me), so I can't quite comment here. > Over the last couple of months, the MIA team has been trying to get me to > participate in some inane bureaucracy. I have been ignoring their emails. I can say that the MIA team didn't try to get you recently. That was Jonathan McDowell that apparently was in contact with you and -according to the note he left- started on 2018-08-25 the process¹ to have you properly retire. Missing the required follow up from your side² I sent a follow up on 2018-09-30 completely out of curtesy as from my side it just seemed like you missed the mail but you were interested in cleaning your position. > Today, they took it to a new level by encouraging everybody who knows > me to pester me to answer my emails from them. This is not acceptable. Today, more than two months after Jonathan started the process, I proceed to follow the "remove" route instead of the "retire" route, which triggers an email in debian-private@. > Leave me alone. Your project left me long ago. Do not contact me with > regard to Debian bullshit. ACK, we will have DAM remove you instead of retire. I suppose there is no harm as you don't seem interested in the "benefits" that the "retired" DDs have over the "removed" ones. I'm sorry to have bothered you more than necessary. Good bye, and thank you for your contributions you made back then! ¹ https://nm.debian.org/process/539 ² which would have consisted in following one link in that mail, and then click a single other button; really, nothing more -- regards, Mattia Rizzolo GPG Key: 66AE 2B4A FCCF 3F52 DA18 4D18 4B04 3FCD B944 4540 .''`. more about me: https://mapreri.org : :' : Launchpad user: https://launchpad.net/~mapreri `. `'` Debian QA page: https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=mattia `-
