 Please Ian, you're a bit too arrogant here and it doesn't help your
 integration in the team. We all know who you are and that you have written
 big chunks of dpkg. But you're not the current leader and thus aren't in a
 position to require any review.  But we welcome any review that you will
 do.

Thanks for your criticism.  I accept your point and I apologise.

I'll try to engage more constructively.  Thanks for your helpful
suggestions.

Ian.

Because I'm the person who is (a) available and (b) competent to do
so.

position to require any review.  But we welcome any review that you will

Concerning availability, it's discutable. You have made significant
contributions with some important new features, but you haven't helped a
lot on the rest of the maintenance. You were supposed to review one patch
at least (#281057) and you didn't do so.

I also wrote a little patch touching the C part (see #433290) this summer
and despite my request for reviews, nobody commented yet.

So please, if you ever expect to be able to take the lead on the C parts
of the code, please show some good will by also reviewing/updating/fixing
the many patchs lying in the BTS. Instead, I've only seen you comment on
some changes without proposing alternative patches and without much
follow-up.

Please don't be offended by this mail, just take it as advice from someone
else who recently joined and managed to adapt himself to Guillem's and
Frank's way of working (which requires some follow-up and prodding from
time to time).

Also, if you use IRC, if would be good for you to join #debian-dpkg, so
that you we can interact more quickly when needed.

Cheers,

I haven't checked - does the dpkg-cross stuff involve any changes to
the dpkg C code or is it all in dpkg-source et al ?

If it makes changes to the C then I think I should review it.

Is there a git branch I can look at ?

Ian.

Hmm, this took a bit more than expected, been busy at work and quite
tired afterwards most of last week. Will be catching up with the mails
this one.

We talked about uploading next version soon, so that we can proceed
with the dpkg-shlibdeps rewrite Raphael has been working on. So I'll
commit some minor pending issues, try to merge the dpkg-cross stuff,
and upload late this weekend.
