Getting angry on maintainers does not help or solve problems for anyone
to be honest. It only makes situations bad and tense.
I have had nice and civil discussions with you on (many) occasions
in the past and I'd appreciate if we can continue it further down the line as well.

(I'm not a lintian maintainer myself but I regularly help with reviews and patches
on lintian)

But why should it be omitted? I think moving it to info should be good
enough to do here -- we would like to encourage maintainers to move to
a newer watch version eventually.

Thanks
