Re: Evolving away from source package realms



Hi,

* Johannes Schauer Marin Rodrigues <josch@debian.org> [2022-10-12 10:49]:
If I understand what you write correctly, then you propose to put into place a
technical barrier for uploading other people's packages. But that will not
reduce the ownership (or hegemony) of developers over their packages and thus
not address the problems that were identified.
This is my understanding as well, and I agree that Didier's proposal
attempts to solve a very different problem.

If we are looking for ways to limit the amount of damage any
individual DD can do (be it inadvertently or maliciously), wouldn't
it be better to assume that it *can* happen, no matter how hard we
try to prevent it, and have some ultima ratio available to undo the
damage? For example, roll back unstable by 24 hours from
snapshot.d.o?


Cheers
Timo
