Very good. But to keep system in "coherent" state You should not only build barrier on entry, but also remove packages that break such coherence. And this should be not only orphaned packages. I am using Debian for more then 10 years and know, it is big enough to include lot of garbage. So I don't understand, why do You think my package is worse of those garbage and how it break "coherence". > Instead, you should make these works available to people as Debian > packages, but not argue for their inclusion *in* Debian until they have > demonstrated a track record of being useful to numerous Debian users and What You mean? How to do this? And were this "track record" will be seen? It is already available as Debian packages on sourceforge. And what further? "numerous Debian users" will seek it there? It sound like demagogy. > That's getting it backward.

I don't sell You elephant or space shuttle. It is only tiny shell script as simple as toy. This way You can kill any desire to join Debian. I begin understand something. I remember, few Years ago one Japanese employer refuse accept me for only one reason, because I like Debian too much. *************************** ### Vladimir Stavrinov ### vstavri...@gmail.com *************************** -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
