A hint of what? That some people will appeal to the CTTE regardless (or
to a GR, like it was hinted several times in this thread already)
because they feel entitled to tell others what to do and how they should
do it? Because they know better what an operating system should be?

I do not accept this kind of intellectual terrorism, where a handful of
low-throughput contributors (when they contribute at all), who never
even try to understand the issues at hand, keep on bitching and whining
endlessly, unsatisfied until others abandon whatever they were trying to
improve. This behavior is toxic to the project. It leads to sclerosis,
killing any kind of momentum that can be built around a given direction.

You don’t get to define what Debian is. It is fortunate that the CTTE
thinks twice before answering to such requests; and in the case of NM,
despite heated discussions, the result ended up satisfying for all
involved parties – except of course for those who just can’t stand the
idea that NM could be installed on a Debian computer, but it’s not as if
those who really develop Debian really cared for them.

kthxbye,
