I would suggest as a beginning to start with one section (e.g. base) and just count which packages miss targets like this and file a wishlist bugs against them (possibly a post-sarge job), and when these targets hit policy just raise the bug severity. > Background: > > 1.

Gonzui also supports svn. Don't you think it can handle the load ? Which debian suites, which sections ? Maintaining the whole thing up-to-date in revision control system would be an overkill I guess ;-) -- pub 4096R/0E4BD0AB 2003-03-18 <danchev.fccf.net/key pgp.mit.edu> fingerprint 1AE7 7C66 0A26 5BFF DF22 5D55 1C57 0C89 0E4B D0AB
