I think, and I believe the ftpmasters would agree, that they will enforce project consensus provided that it doesn't strike them as legally dangerous or otherwise seriously problematic. I would rather have a consensus than a dictated policy. More people involved means more insight into the challenges of different types of packages. As we've already seen with previous iterations of this discussion, it's too easy to draw conclusions based on the vast majority of tiny packages and create situations that are untenable for the small number of huge packages we have. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
