I think that it is acceptable for users to request that maintainers ask to includ a package in volatile. Obviously packages should not be put in volatile without maintainers knowing/desiring it, but users should feel free to ask maintainers. > Even if Duncan Findlay decides that Spamassassin needs to be included > into volatile, it is up to him to contact the volatile team. Right, and a bug report is a gentle prod in the right direction. This bug report would be perfectly acceptable if it weren't a duplicate... Perhaps the debian-volatile team could elaborate on what is required pf maintainers wishing to have packages in volatile. I have seen no information about the process and your website is pretty bare.
