No, I am not. I don't have an informed opinion on whether Hector should or shouldn't be made part of DSA; I was only responding to Joerg's characterization of the delegation process, which implied that the DPL is a figurehead who didn't need to be consulted before changes were made to delegated teams. I.e., Joerg's description is problematic not for how it handles the controversial cases, but for how it handles the non-controversial ones. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
