Sitting around thinking about nothing in particular, and it occurred
to me that it might be useful to include some of the buggier packages
on the WNPP. This might be a good way to get people to work on fixing
these packages, instead of seeking out new things to package. Maybe
we could include all
Debian better, go do those instead of wasting your time with this
drivel.

Is it time for it to go? It's not like it's broken or it has any

Before you go starting another flame war, did you go back and look
through the list history for 'closed list' et similae? Maybe you
could do that, and respond to the concerns raised in *those* flame

Do you have the resources to try and follow it on non-intel
architectures as well? Gdb is a hairy package...

Maybe it should ask if you want british or american english.

If you need to start it with -X, just do it by hand. That's what I do
when I'm hacking on mod_dtcl. I'm not really sure that modes of
operation belong in init.d
- where do you get off on telling me what I speak?!
Maybe we should just use Debian English or Internet English, wich
means: produce something legible by other inhabitants of the Internet
and/or Debian, and who cares about the details.

create a minimal set of free data files. At that time, then the whole
thing can go into main.
By the way, isn't "contrib" a silly and misleading name?
