I don't see why this would be a contradiction. The question was not about putting the address on a personal homepage but about doing so _when saying that one is a DD_. This clearly implies that the address is only given as a contact address for Debian related matters (and that there's probably another address which can be used to non-Debian matters). > I further caution that it is dangerous to draw conclusions on the > feelings of the project based on the unauthenticated responses of > only a small minority of developers. Sure, it would be nice to hear the opinion of more people, but I personally thought that 100 was a pretty high number. I thought less people would participate. > If we were to put the rest of the developers in the "don't care" > category -- which is not a completely unreasonable thing to do, > given that they did not respond to the survey Ah, I'm not sure if this is valid. Please don't forget that -project is an optional list, etc. -- Martin Michlmayr [EMAIL PROTECTED]
