Now you mentioned it, indeed I should have remembered to cc Daniel. Hopefully this would not cause too much discomfort on his part, since I had already emailed him in private before (and received no reply yet). > Secondly, yes, I've been informed that there was not many acitivity > lately, but didn't yet follow up.

I was following Section 7.4 of the developer's reference, and private notification of suspected inactivity through [EMAIL PROTECTED] is not listed anywhere in that section. Contacting QA is supposed to be the final step after you have looked at his packages, inquired on -devel and such to make sure that the developer is indeed missing. What happens after a message is sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] You mentioned that you will follow up soon, and what is your (or QA's) role in this procedure? And finally, are there plans to update the Developer's Reference to reflect this change in standard procedure?
