Well, you're allowed to make bad choices, I suppose. Policy decisions always make someone unhappy -- they're not needed if everyone's agreed on the right thing to do, they're not even needed if everyone doing the work is agreed on the right thing to do. If you're expecting folks who disagree with you to support policy decisions that go in your favour -- which is presumably what you were hoping for when you asked for one -- you should do likewise for policy decisions that aren't in your favour. > [1] I don't use either our kernel package or d-i. Which roughly paraphrases to "I don't plan on ever installing Debian again."
