Well, as I said, in https://bugs.debian.org/788361 Javier wrote: "I will review". Just ping him about it again. Supplying patches won't harm. Just do it. > > I recently started doing some work on debian faq; if Javier doesn't get to it > > soonish (he said he would), I'll deal with that one. Thanks a lot for the > > patch, btw! BTW, in general I feel if you have commit access and some ideas for improvements: please do go ahead & just commit it. In case somebody finds it's not good, it can always get reverted. In wikipedia-country it's called "Be Bold": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Be_bold . I feel in Debian it's just the same. I only now see your 2 messages in https://lists.debian.org/debian-doc/2016/02/msg00001.html ; I missed them at the time. I am sorry about that. So, about #788361 : just ping Javier again (Cc-ed.) <snip> > > You can help; actually, you're already doing it :) > > Indeed.

I can only repeat: Be Bold :) Thanks for your interest & work, Bye, Joost -- Are Linux users lemmings collectively jumping off of the cliff of reliable, well-engineered commercial software? --Matt Welsh http://mdcc.cx/ ※ http://ad1810.com/
