It is also perfectly possible for a TC resolution to retract or modify a previous TC resolution. So all that's needed is for the TC to say "all of our init system resolutions should be treated as withdrawn if contradicted by a simple majority in a GR". > Ian - any thoughts on if your tech-ctte constitution GR could address > this? You mean my TC resolution draft. Well, if you look at the debian-ctte list you will see that Bdale has decided to take matters into his own hands. He has proposed his own version of an init system resolution which lacks the GR override clause, without giving anyone a chance to comment on the text before calling for a vote. (I'm pretty cross with Bdale about that. Also he failed to send his messages to the bug, but only send them to the debian-ctte list.) I have proposed a separate TC resolution to try to address this, but it's obviously less clear. Ian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-vote-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
