Raphael,

Where is the dpkg team policy that requires Ian to rebase?

We have asked many times and the only policy[0] you have offered
in your defense contains recommendations for the developer (Ian),
not mandates, and clearly shows that the developer chooses how
many times to rebase - whether that be zero, one, or more times.

Is is not the case that you and Guillem have violated your own
team policy for roughly six months by blocking Ian's changes?
