Sure, i can do some decisions, but all my decisions must follow the policy documents. Some can be better for others, another can be bad. If there are bad decisions made by me (or by another maintainer), anybody can fill bugreport, because the maintainer haven't see/know all cases or relations. Sometime (with some maintainers) it can be tricky, but filling the bugreport is first (and essential) step to take own suggestion into realization - and this is thing, which IMO are known for us both. Initially i try to point on "community distro" words. And i want to tell, that these words does not mean, that distro (Debian) must follow suggestions from all. But you are right, it can follow suggestion from anybody (and has tools for this). By the 20 years of Debian life anybody can see, that his system (and his conservatism) is good for stability, security, long time live, etc :-) regards -- Slavko http://slavino.sk
