So, your recommendation is to implement a parallel NM process to the
existing one and prove that it is better? I doubt that it would make *any*
sense when the DAMs won't accept the outcome of that process and this is
*very* unlikely. :)

It's related to proposals of improving the NM process. When proposed
improvments are put done here, why take it to -project? To get them put down
there as well? Makes no sense to me. 

BTW: how's the cron issue going on hurd-i386? Is it already fixed on your
buildd? ;)
