And here we might get to a consensus again: Actually you *do* care about
a scsiaddgui package *personally* by suggesting to include it in Debian.
That's fine. We all started this way: We cared about packages not being
in Debian and started to package them and over the time the packages
really made it into Debian. By doing so some of us even became Debian
Developers.

As with every voluntary project: There must be someone who is actually
*doing* all the stuff. Thus you are welcome to contribute.

Micha
