Re: RFS: parcellite 1.0.2~rc5-1 (updated package)

I'm looking for a sponsor for my package parcellite. I would also
appreciate it if the sponsor would set the DM-Upload-Allowed field.
I might be stricter than some, but for me this is a no-go. According
to my interpretation of the DM process, this flag should only be set
by a sponsor that is familiar with your work and has confidence that
you can maintain the package without supervision. I don't think one
upload is enough to know this.
This is also my understanding.
And that is your prerogative. That's why I haven't set the field
myself. If you'd care to sponsor the package as is, I would appreciate
it. If someone else, most likely one of the people who have already
sponsored this package I've maintained since 2008, trusts my work and
would like to both upload it and set the DM-Upload-Allowed field, I
would be twice as appreciative.
If a sponsor if familiar with your work, then surely he's also aware
that you are a DM. There's no need to mention it in your RFS mail. :)
