Of late, there seem to have been a lot of political discussions going on in this group. These discussions all are intended to improve Debian: its product, its internal operation, and its structure. These are very important discussions that need to be held.
It seems, however, that the time for these discussions should not be now. Debian is poised at the brink of a major release (2.0 Hamm), and a fair amount of work needs to be done. The departure of Christian leaves a good sized gap in the organization, and one that will not be easy to fill. This was seemingly brought about by too many criticisms of policies and politics at a time when bug fixing is more important. We can not afford to lose people like him. I would strongly urge that these discussions be tabled for a month or two, until Hamm is safely on its way. The aim of Debian is to produce a Linux Distribution, and at a time when a major release is on the horizon that should be the primary concern of the organization.
