I think over the past week we have learned that we are not (yet) at a point where the project would issue such a statement, therefore I'm not going to drag this out further and am going to close this topic by withdrawing my proposal. Regarding Philip's comments about typos: I'm sorry, it's hard to notice without a spell checker. I now enabled spell checking in vim. In the same note, I want to apologize for the "the" in the subject, it's my understanding we should refer to "Ukraine" and not "the Ukraine", and the text did so, but I missed fixing this in the subject. Regarding the Russian law: It's a scare-mongering tactic, don't give in to it. There is no rule of law in Russia anyway, it's just a scam. -- debian developer - deb.li/jak | jak-linux.org - free software dev ubuntu core developer i speak de, en
