We don't need yet another process, if you want to get rid of a package you can open an RFA bug or orphan it and/or open an rc bug, so it won't be part of the next stable release unless somebody takes care of it. And then ask for removal. -- Bernd Zeimetz Debian GNU/Linux Developer http://bzed.de http://www.debian.org GPG Fingerprint: ECA1 E3F2 8E11 2432 D485 DD95 EB36 171A 6FF9 435F
