The other half of the replacement for MIA would be the periodic WAYT pings (hopefully that's still a plan to do that ongoing) to confirm that people still want to be active in the project. Just because someone has no packages doesn't mean that we should close their account; they're still entitled to vote for as long as they wish, IMO. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
