I'm one of the people who "disagrees", but actually I don't. ;-) When planning an NMU, you must notify the maintainer, and give him time to react, and respond to the reaction. That's basically the same thing as consulting him IMO, except that "no response" leads to "Ok". I think that is good, it's one of the reasons NMUs are possible at all. > > result in more cases where the NMUer would not give some time to the > > maintainer. > > Exactly, I propose that the maintainer can say "no, thank you" whithout > it becoming a crisis.
