I beg you to mind your wording tough. > 1. what about the developers that couldn't come to DC? don't we > deserve to be asked for our opinion? are we of a lower class? is this > a decision only made by a team and then you want to us to pretend the > whole project decided it? It is a delegate decision according to 2.5 of the constitution. yours Martin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
