Just for the record, I'm not against meritocracy. I think meritocracy
-real meritocracy- is a good thing. I was just mainly moving this
debate towards a public list. Meritocracy is a good value, but it's
not the only one. Also, take into account that there is never a pure
meritocracy, there are many other factors interfering.

I was just opening the debate for everyone to participate. The main
question would be: is technical capacity the only important thing in
the Debian Community, or should other things taken into account, like
the capacity to work with other people. I don't have the answer.
