Hey, give the man time. I have not yet had time to fill out his
review; I am sure all this activity is not for naught. What bothers me
about all this is that we had a nicely detaled document that spells out
who has what rights, and it seems fairly clear to me that all powers in
Debian stem from the powers laid down there; but that nicely detailed
document is not enough.
What makes one thing that any non-supermajority GR which says
essentially the same thing as the constitution will have any weight?
Are people who were grandfathered by the constitution (or some
such equally silly argument) not also grandfathered by this forthcoming
GR? What changes?
