We should ensure that the document describing the organisational layout of the project[1] is accurate. I can come into Ian Jackson's reply[2], and I don't feel it is really needed to tackle this issue, as long as the differences either way are mostly academic. I intend to focus on real issues instead. When the difference is relevant, I will focus on achieving what I want to achieve. As I wrote in my platform: | [Debian] excels where people work together directly on technical | problems they like to contribute to. It is the nature of the Debian | project, and in the ideal situation, the DPL should not be involved at | all. What remains on the plate from the current term, is working with some of those teams to get some bottlenecks and other issues resolved, but I do not expect to need to (or that it would be effective to) resort to powers only available for dealing with delegated teams, nor do I currently consider any of the issues pressing enough to promise working on them in my platform -- I will work on some of them, and direct more attention when needed, but there are only so many hours in a year, and I want to focus my DPL-ship. --Jeroen [1] http://www.debian.org/intro/organization [2] http://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2006/02/msg00679.html -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] (also for Jabber & MSN; ICQ: 33944357) http://Jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
