No, you're wrong. The mechanism for achieving large-scale archive changes isn't presently formally defined at all. Informally, it appears to be the exclusive domain of the Debian Archive Administrators (who, the last time I checked, were not official delegates of the Debian Project Leader[1]). [1] The last time I asked, I got no answer. It's possible the DPL made a delegation without announcing it to debian-devel-announce. -- G.
