My take on this is that we do not have a problem: at least, none
that this GR is addressing. I am of the camp that believe that the
only power people have in any capacity in Debian flows from the
constitution; which means either the powers listed for developers, or
as delegates of the DPL. Recent delegation activity seems to bear this
out.
We have had full members added to the FTP team, to the DAM, and
I don't think we had issues with any other tesm refusing to accept
people.
We might have issues where the DPL has not acted to add people
to delegated teams, or where there are not enough motivated team
members that are active, but a GR like this does not address those
areas.
As it stands, with the delegations already in place, and with
the detailed team reviews underway, which indicates that the current
DPL is going to be actively addressing the problems we have, that a GR
is just a waste of time.
I tend to agree with joeyh that GR's lead to controversy, are
overly bureaucratic, and should be a matter of last recourse; we are
hardly at last recourse here. The problems are already being addressed.
All I am saying, is just give lo^H^Hnormal DPL powers a
chance. It is not as if our current DPL is sitting on his hands.
