Ok, when you cite the buildd "security" story, then you cite the inability
by Mr. Troup to cooperate and communicate as well. 
The so called "security" issue wasn't one at all because of prior explained
facts. I simply refused to blindly accept his sudden "policy", because I
don't wanted to trap into his pitfalls again (doing well-known stuff and
then being accused of violating some new policy which had not been made
public in advance). 
Actually the buildd story is an excellent example that Mr. Troup is simply
not able to do his job as it deserves to be done. It was all about what is
happening now and again and again...

I still miss your steps how do you plan to solve the running gag of
ftpmaster/DAM/DSA complaints...

Ah, so if volunteers contributing to Debian are not doing that way you want,
you make them go away. That makes sense pretty much, indeed... 
Yeah, Debian is really a great place for volunteers, isn't it?

Hooray! Once again the "you're not a part of the project, you have no say"
argueing...

Did I say that? I said, that I prefer a radical change in Debian over a
fork, not that *I* want to do that. I'm quite sure that you simply missed
that point in the heat of discussing and not of missing the ability to read
and understand.
