Dirk, in this transition process you told a lot of people not nice words
instead of following the established transition process in Debian. If I
were you I would make myself comfortable with the transition process
inside Debian in order to avoid a lot of personal friction.
Precisely I would like you to reconsider your answer
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=868558#231
that it might be possibly you who misunderstood Developers Reference.
(Admitting that you always confuse this with Debian Policy is something
that makes me shiver, honestly.) Please re-read and make sure the next
transition will not end up in the same manner.
Thank you for considering and thanks as well for all your work on
Debian's R infrastructure.
Andreas.
