I agree. I already mplemented the revdeps, but somehow they don't get
printed. Will fix.

Hmm, OK, it might indeed be better to split the report in two: one part
(with general stats, packages to be removed, list of all orphaned and
RFP'ed packages) to d-d-announce, and one (with renaming and merging

Yes, of course. In fact, everyone who ever contributed to the bug log
is Cc'ed. This is probably overkill, but it won't really hurt anyone i
