- Not everybody wants to be DD. [1] - Not everybody deserves to be DD. [2] - Everybody who is able to properly maintain a package according to our rules should have the possibility to maintain that package. Cheers, [1] They exist, they are not a majority, but I don't see why should refuse their help. [2] The NM process rejects some people who have the technical abilities to maintain packages but who are not in sync with the rest of the community. I fail to see why we should refuse their technical contribution. The NM process also scares away people who don't have the technical abilities to become DD. That doesn't mean they wouldn't be able to maintain some simple packages. -- Raphaël Hertzog Premier livre français sur Debian GNU/Linux : http://www.ouaza.com/livre/admin-debian/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
