Well, I do read those lists. But if you see concrete problems
with Debian packages, or things you wish to be in the Debian ref
policy, please do continue to file bugs with the BTS; there is less
chance that anything will be overlooked that way.

Absolutely. I think there used to be a usertag, with the user
set to the alioth dev mailing list, that we used to tag bugs with
selinux patches with so they could be followed. Perhaps it is time to
resurect that practice.

Perhaps a wish list bug is in order?
