Please add me to bpo uploader (2nd try)



Hi,

Please add me to bpo uploader to enable updating Debian Infrastructure
run on stable with bpo package.

I need to get debiandoc-sgml updated to 1.2.9.  See Debian admin's
comment below.  This upload will violate your stated policy in bpo
inclusion as discussed below but is prerequisite for Debian admin to
update system.

(By the way, keeping DH_COMPAT high value required or suggested?  IT is
actually easier to build with lowered DH_COMPAT.)

Regards,

Osamu

That part of bpo policy is stupid, and I don't think the people who
actually admit new packages into the archive are handling it like that.

I disagree, please upload to bpo.
