Re: CVE Cross references

2023-10-16 Thread Thomas Lange
No, this is not a proper fix, since the ref-table.inc is need two
times. In security and lts/security for two version of
crossrefenreces.

I've now manually delete the wrong, empty ref-table.inc on the www
master and I will check if it get generated properly.

Still we have to check, why it is not rebuild properly sometimes.

Great idea! IMO it should be very easy for the AH team or any DD to
ask the DPL for getting money for an external mediator if a situation
is escalating. If we would already had implemented this, some hundreds
of mails would have been saved.

Please, please spend money for this. It's worth it more than anything
else.

Re: Appeal procedure for DAM actions

2019-01-08 Thread Thomas Lange
Thanks for this details analysis and for your suggestions for
improvements. I like especially the idea of changing the timeline and
to remove the update of the DAM statement (3. Appealer statement).
I also was wondering what "turning it into a warning" really means.
I think a warning should be done by DAM before someone gets expelled.

Again, this posting helps me as a non-native speaker to raise my
voice.

Do you plan an official announcement of this new procedure? IMO
debian-project is not read by all (e.g. I'm not subscribed to it) and
because some people missed transparency in the past it would be good
to inform all.


JFTR: Thanks Enrico for pointing me how to see the list of members
that will vote. Keep in mind that this may change.
