If DWN stops being published regularly, that must be due to unfortunate 
circumstances, so stating that is useless. If it had been stated instead, for 
example, that due to the low contribution to Martin Schulze's Amazon 
wishlist, he had decided to reduce his involvement, I think Drew Parsons 
wouldn't have complained.

Drew Parsons must also have been commenting the point of view which joey sends 
by implying that dunc-tank is unfortunate, as DWN should be NPOV. If you 
don't like that people are paid to work on Debian, you can help Debian 
anyway...but it's still best to stay neutral in what should be so.
