>From that same code of conduct: "If you want to complain to someone who sent you a carbon copy when you did not ask for it, do it privately." Also, I think the CoC is wrong in making policy about who to send replies to. Some people actually prefer getting replies, while others don't. Since there's a header that nicely allows you to specify just that, I think a more useful rule in a code of conduct is "use a mailer that respects the Mail-Followup-To: header, or respect it manually". This way, people can express their preference, and there should be no complaints about whether or not replies should be sent. -- The volume of a pizza of thickness a and radius z can be described by the following formula: pi zz a -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
