These are no reasonable questions. Please unsubscribe from debian-vote if you do not wish to hear the opinions of the candidates on politically charged issues as well as ordinary technical issues. You certainly have not gained moderator rights on this mailing list; so please refrain from attempting to so. The question above does seem germane, since it refers to in passing to an incident that drowned the signal on a development list of the project with non-technical noise; hearing the candidates views on how these issues are to be resolved would show their modus operandi in handling similar incidents in the future. manoj -- FORTUNE DISCUSSES THE OBSCURE FILMS: #3 MIRACLE ON 42ND STREET: Santa Claus, in the off season, follows his heart's desire and tries to make it big on Broadway.
