So I have finalized the question with all the choices. Given the large number of choices, I opted to not require a ranking but to give a mark between 0 to 10 to evaluate the importance of the idea: https://salsa.debian.org/freexian-team/misc-drafts/-/commit/b0073480657fae493df905821ee01b4ca3547c7f It looks like this: ---- For each of the ideas listed below, please rate its importance for Debian from 1 (not important at all) to 10 (very important). If you are against the idea, please rate it with 0 (unacceptable). Ideas related to Debian's purpose: * [Debian should track issues in user stories and not just packages](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/29) * [Debian should provide high quality ansible roles (and/or salt formulas, etc.)](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/18) Ideas related to packaging workflows: * [Debian should allow to upload packages by pushing a signed git tag](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/9) * [Debian should provide personal/extra package repositories for Debian developers/teams](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/6) * [Debian should have a default standard packaging workflow](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/24) * [Debian should rethink/clarify the objectives of the NEW queue review](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/11) * [Debian should create a unified workflow for package review and use it everywhere applicable](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/19) * [Debian should migrate packages without any VCS into salsa](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/10) * [Debian should provide a better infrastructure to manage transitions](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/21) Ideas of other organizational changes: * [Debian should build a packaging team to maintain vital system components](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/30) * [Debian should publicly support usage of the testing release](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/12) * [Debian should have a unstable-proposed-updates suite for use during freeze](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/25) * [Debian should formalize its reimbursement process to reduce extra paperwork](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/1) Ideas of technical changes: * [Debian should make it easy for blends and derivatives to build and host images](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/27) * [Debian should make it easy to fork packages and/or the distribution](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/23) * [Debian should further trim the base system for the benefits of containers and embedded systems](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/20) * [Debian should complete the merged-/usr transition](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/22) * [Debian should switch wiki.debian.org from MoinMoin to Mediawiki](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/2) * [ports.debian.org should be managed with dak and britney](https://salsa.debian.org/debian/grow-your-ideas/-/issues/5) Note that all the ideas are linked to a corresponding issue in the "grow your ideas" project. Please consider upvoting the ideas there that you consider worthwhile to pursue. You do that by clicking the "thumbs up" button at the top of each issue on salsa.debian.org. ---- I have left out a few low-impact and really uncontroversial ideas (like "port UDD to Python 3", we all agree on that, it's more a matter of finding the right volunteer). If you think I badly rephrased some of the ideas in there, please let me know.
