We'll never tell that! We just tell "we trust you to maintain <x> according to our standards but since you didn't went (yet) through full NM, we don't trust you on working on anything you'd want". > any problem, as I do not believe we have a problem finding people > willing to package something to itch their scratch, but finding people > doing more than that. Saying we want more people doing general QA work will not create those people. Refusing help on specific package because some people do not want to go through NM to maintain a very limited package is dumb: - either we remove the (useful) package - or we give more workload to the set of DD who could care of the other badly maintained packages otherwise Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog Premier livre français sur Debian GNU/Linux : http://www.ouaza.com/livre/admin-debian/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
