Let me just pop in to say thank you for that. I appreciate you taking the time to talk to Debbugs / GNU folks to work through the obstacles that the current situation with the GNU fork of Debbugs presents us with. I don’t want to add weight to the scales on either side (a future with or without Debbugs), but I think it is important to identify the actual limitations and opportunities of the existing platform and chart the shortest route around them. It’s how we ended up with mumi in the first place, and I’m hopeful that this approach can get us to a better place when it comes to tooling. (The biggest chunk of the problem may well be a social issue, that can only be overcome if we find a narrative we all can comfortably enact.) -- Ricardo
