Let's play the "evil maintainer game":
I play the evil maintainer who does everything with his packages that
isn't forbidden.
You (and others if they want) try to convince me that I'm wrong.
We could set some goals, e.g. I win when I get three packages statically
linked against libc (the idea comes from the thread about gnumeric
linking statically with libgal that is currently on debian-devel) into
testing and you win if you convince me not to do this...
Yes, I know this sounds ridiculous, but remember that we have 900
different people maintaining our packages - and every person has his own
personality.
