 Ok, I'm tired, I'm sure I could have find dozen of other questions like
 those five ... but I'll let other people continue with questions like
 that if they like it.

Okay, let me ask some other questions...

 6. Many people complaint that the pool is too bloated, priorities too
generic, too many packages to pick the right one from the list...

 [ ] making some packages be more important to others is bad and will
 make create some kind of elite and second class packages
 [ ] we need a way to priorize the packages, review them, set keywords
 on the package (desktop/edu/demudi/...) and setting the appropriate
 priority for the target user group
 [ ] the problem exists but I hope someone will fix it after my DPLship
 [ ] there is no problem, the current system is just right

 7. There are lots of backport series for Woody environment because
people do not want to wait two years for a simple update, eg. when
their software is not supported by ancient versions in Woody...

 [ ] there are no problems with Woody!
 [ ] we should try to legalize such efforts and create a semi-automatic
 system, similar to Raphaels former Debian-Working concept
 [ ] those are not the users we want
 [ ] such people should shut up and wait a bit

Gruss/Regards,
Eduard.

 I thought somebody would collect all questions and they would be
 aske/answered in one go?

Well no, questions are collected and selected for the IRC debate, but
direct questions on this list has always been the main way to discuss
the project of each candidate.

 I do have some questions after reading the platforms, but I thought
 maybe I wait till after the rebuttal. Is this list to place to discuss
 the platforms? Looked to me more like a discussion on statistical
 theories recently...

Heh, the discussion about the voting mechanism are not supposed
to continue forever, one day we'll have resolved all problems
related to that and this should never come again. :)
