I was a bit scared reading about Chris Cheney orphaning his KDE packages in the unreleased DWN and wnpp mailout... I'm glad to see that the group discussed earlier was/is actually being created.
Now, some comments on http://people.debian.org/~madkiss/debian-kde-policy.html Reading paragraph 1(3), I worry about only allowing the group to remove people doing malicious things... Perhaps some examples of malicious behavior would be useful. E.g. knowingly going against the policy document? Knowingly doing things that the Debian technical committee vote is unacceptable for Debian? ----- Paragraph 1(2) should probably be clarified. "If there are no objections"... "If there are no formal objections"... what's the time period during which objections can be made? Perhaps people should be revocable added during the objection period. I.e. added ad hoc, but if there's an objection in time, then they can be removed without having use paragraph 1(3). ----- Paragraph 2(8) - (8) A primary port maintainer may turn down the rights given to him in 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7 and allow one member or all members of the Debian Qt/KDE... + (8) A primary port maintainer may turn down the rights given to him in 2.5, 2.6 and 2.7 and allow some or all of the members of the Debian Qt/KDE... It is probably not desirable to limit co-maintainership to only one or all. ----- Paragraph 2(9) talks about a consensus with the mailing list. Perhaps this should be a consensus with the group? Also, a semantic issues, it should be "Changes to this policy", not file or else you're contradicting the license of the file. ----- Drew Daniels P.S. please CC replies to me.
