I think it is both undesirable and unnecessary, neither by themselves sufficient
for a formal objection perhaps, but together very much objectionable.
Furthermore, it is clear that the proposal was not at all serious, but a measure
intended only to buy time.  A serious proposal should provide the implementation
and timing for the transition to take place, and not defer such decisions to
some future time.

Anyhow, it seems it may be a moot point anyhow, since Wichert has decided to put
the transitional question in the hands of the Technical Committee.  I will defer
to the decision which will be made, in the meantime, I will not move any
packages currently in /usr/doc to /usr/share/doc (nor have I done so since the
request was posted to devel-announce), nor move my packages currently in
/usr/share/doc back to /usr/doc.
