What do you mean? I doubt that specific policies (like our or python or

With our current approach we don't use the tarball as XFree86, I've

Sounds great, so we can arrange a Debian Ocaml Maintainers Meeting
("DOMM" ... sounds fine :-) in Paris! Anyway I'm going to be in Paris
only until 10-15 of July, then I will be back in Paris in September. For
the First Jeudi I will be surely here, anyway.
