If this is how many people feel then I would like to simply have the language of the policies in that document fixed up as Manoj pointed out. It is clearly easy to misunderstand the intent so *at least* that needs changing. The policies we have to have are not entirely 'common sense' and this is what prompted the creation of this document in the first place. Example: Very few people seemed to quite understand the NNTP policy and its rational. It also seems there is concern over the specific way in which we handle these cases. The big points I noticed are: 1) Name Withheld? 2) Debian-Private removal? 3) Level of Detail/Open Process/Etc All of which are not really 'common sense' or there would not be such strife. There at least needs to be some kind of agreement on what to do for the 3 above. Jason
