I can't follow that style of discussion. You seems to really want to not accept some facts about the kFreeBSD and Hurd architectures. On the one hand you complaining about Debian is a *non*-universal OS, on the other side I haven't seen a broader supporting from the people who wanting these architectures to stay in Debian on some important packages. Please stop to complain on non specific things and start to solve the problems you see or have! You know: Someone means YOU, it's all up to the people to keep things running. Or simply move over to other projects were you feel more comfortable with. There is enough space for all of us. Both architectures haven't seen any major development in the past years and for me as a maintainer of packages the workload on supporting these architectures between the new upstream releases costs a lot of time with no real gain in the end as the build dependencies later can not be fulfilled or most of the time while importing new source I'm working on readjust the patch queue! So I disagree on "One person is enough" as long this one person can not keep track on all the required main and corner cases so other maintainers get to do the workload here alone. -- Regards Carsten Schoenert
