Be that as it may, one should not get to make decisions
critical to the project without knowing the projects culture,
methodologies, philosophy, and the basics of its internal structures.
I also can't put much trust in a person to not harm Debian
(delibrately or inadvertently), if there level of involvement and
commitment to the project isn't demonstrable.
Lacking that, I would humbly thank the person for their
contribution, acknowledge it, and leave enfranchisement off the
table.
