I still lack the reason why someone would not be DD for political reasons _and_ wanting to help improving Debian at the same time. Yes I know about Matthew, he can do whatever he likes, but I don't really care about him being a diva. I disagree that Debian should split hairs in four for such people. And I have also issues with every other use case that have been talked about yet. Yes, even the "upstream wants to package his stuff", I'm not sure we want to have tuomov-like people arguing with the release team about the silliness of stable releases, and for most of the upstreams, there is what, 10 uploads a year ? maybe 20 with snapshots.. Well, that's the kind of load that is easy to deal with as a sponsor. Really. Having people in DM for 10 uploads a year is a _huge_ overkill. FWIW that's the number of packages I upload in a day when I'm doing QA work e.g.. So while maybe Josselin is lacking some kind of diplomatic way to say things but: I've not seen more arguments on Loïc's end either (funny how you react about Joss not detailing his arguments and not Loïc), and for sure there is equally good arguments against your points as well. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O madcoder@debian.org OOO http://www.madism.org
