This is not fair. Firstly, the TC cannot overrule delegates. This is well established. During my recently-completed TC term, there was no doubt within the committee that we could only deal with disputes among package maintainers/contributors, not anything involving DPL delegates. Secondly, "immediately escalating this to -vote" is not true, because we tried to resolve it in private first, extensively. And we tried to get the DPL to help. But the DPL didn't respond to a single message in the long private thread, despite being CCed on every message. > *Also*, because some of us would like to focus on getting this trixie > release out. I'm sorry that I didn't think of this. It's always seemed to me that political stuff can run in parallel to freezes (for example, we have been running the DPL election just fine), but I see now that others disagree. -- Sean Whitton
