Thank you. Even though there are some actions which are definitely
legitimate as per policy and recommendations in the devref, having a
senior developer spell out ideas and discuss it with several
developers lends it a further air of legitimacy, and significantly
reduces inhibition and fear of being reprimanded.

I shall be following this video closely. Thank you for conducting
this.

Will there be a video feed of this? I'd love to hear it at least (and
perhaps participate via IRC or something, if someone's willing to
proxy).

Hijacking packages for fun and profit

2012-07-02 Thread Steve McIntyre
Hi folks,

Based on some of the *heated* discussions that have happened on the
lists recently, I've organised a DebConf BoF session so we can
(hopefully) have a productive session on the topic of package
maintenance and how to hand over / take over packages.
