It's my assessment that the rough consensus is in favor of either 2 or 3, with 3 getting more explicit votes, but 2 not getting any resistance, and having the justification that it's useful to a number of people. Thus, I will modify the spec to implement option 2. If there are objections to this, I'll be happy to revert the change until they're discussed. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-project-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
