(this is the second review for this package's templates after some new templates were added) Please find, for review, the debconf templates and packages descriptions for the no-ip source package. This review will last from Tuesday, November 06, 2007 to Friday, November 16, 2007. Please send reviews as unified diffs (diff -u) against the original files. Comments about your proposed changes will be appreciated. Your review should be sent as an answer to this mail. When appropriate, I will send intermediate requests for review, with "[RFRn]" (n>=2) as a subject tag. When we will reach a consensus, I send a "Last Chance For Comments" mail with "[LCFC]" as a subject tag. Finally, the reviewed templates will be sent to the package maintainer as a bug report, and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as a subject tag.

Why not just ask "Enable NAT"?" with a default to "true"? Otherwise, explain what NAT is (unjargonize). Reword the "just don't change the setting, dude" sentence. --
