Well, let's be even-handed. If Raul Miller can raise objections to the Desert Island test that we've heard and replied to time and again, we can repeat the cycle with him. Why should Raul Miller be held to a lower standard of having to do his homework than the people who reply to him? He's been a Debian Developer for longer than most of the regulars on this list, and is a member of the Technical Committee. One would reasonably expect him to have a formidable command of the issues. -- G.
