I didn't intend to keep this thread alive, but I keep seeing this kind of
pointless response ("what is wrong with being sponsored"). Yet none of
the respondents ever seems willing (or eager) to resign their debian
developer status and become of the `sponsored'. ]
Why should he have to explain that?
I mean if you see nothing wrong with the current situation why don't
you resign as a debian developer and allow me to sponsor your packages?
I mean nothing you need to do should be impossible even if you are not
a developer, right?
