Hi,
This is getting nowhere. Well, when the constitution is
ratified, maybe one can see how much support there is for more
strongly ratifying the policy documents. As it stands, I have no
motivation to work on the ``good practices'' document unless I have
any indication it is going to be useful.

You are the one being unreasonable. I said there are certain
sets of documents that constitute the Debian policy
documents. That does not mean those are the only ones which
are followed.
