This is right. I also used the word GR, but I do not want it. All I want is that the people that made that proposal (decision?) after the Vancouver meeting accept that although they have a big saying here, because they do much of the work involved, they're not the only ones. And there are some suggestions around that would allow to combine both goals: Dropping the workload of the release-team, ftpmaster team, etc. considerably, while still trying to release "etch + ports changes". I hope the people from the Vancouver group will consider these proposals. May no GR, and even no GR draft, be needed for this. Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Inst. f. Biochemie der Univ.
