I didn't "stage a walkout"; I quit. I've had nothing to do with new-maintainer since then. I fail to see how that's "improper behaviour" which "screwed Debian over". As to your claim that my views are "woefully at odds with reality", perhaps you'd like to explain to me how I removed 35+ nominal "developers" (from the keyring) without even trying, not to mention a single one of them turning up to object? I'd also be prepared to bet silly amounts of money, that someone who took the time, could go through and find another 100 without significant effort? Perhaps people should look at all unjustifiable abuse people who do stuff for Debian receive (wahey, Ben C anyone?)? And consider the implications of it... Oh, by the way, Chris, whatever happened to you taking over the m68k webpages? As you promised to do n months ago? -- James
