I have the gut feeling that this declassification issue is some kind of
RFP bug which nobody really wants to pick. If you ask me if I would
prefer people working on fixing RC bugs or rather reading piles of old
mails to decide about declasification or not I would have a clear
answer.
IMHO we should rethink the issue: In how far is spending time into
declassification of old E-Mails helpful for our users and Debian as a
project. Just to prove we are open (except of about 10% of the not
declassification mails)? Does anybody think that some thousand of
people after declassification of mails will start reading those old
stuff?
To get me correct: I'm not against declassification in general and I'd
be fine if all my mails to debian-pr would be published - but the effort
to do the actual work just drains time from people who could spend their
time more effectively for the good of Debian.
Kind regards
Andreas.
PS: Stefano, all people who disagree with my mail are obviosely
volunteers for the declassification team and will probably start
working on it soon.
