You are making your point weaker by using words out of their meaning and context. Disallowing comments is not censorship. It has nothing to do with censorship. > The content isn't archived. Is this a problem? a feature? That would indeed make a nice improvement to have such a feature, but it would require authorization from all copyright owners. An alternative solution would be to index the contents and make the history searchable. I don’t think this requires any authorization if we don’t store the archived posts themselves, only permanent links to them. Overall, I’m curious to why you are asking such questions as part of the DPL campaign. Do you feel the DPL should give have authority over what services *.debian.org provides? This would be way out of the Constitution. Cheers, -- .''`.
