[RFR] templates://xringd/{templates}



Please find, for review, the debconf templates and packages descriptions for the xringd source package.

This review will last from Monday, September 07, 2015 to Thursday, September 17, 2015.

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, a summary will be sent to the review bug report,
and a mail will be sent to this list with "[BTS]" as a subject tag.

I'm not entirely happy with this proposal. The point is to avoid
"your", as we always do, on the rationale that the peson installing
packages is not always the machine's owner.

Still, I find that my proposal is clumsy and I feel like Justin will
be able to propose seomthing better..:-)
