Because I simply agreed with points already expressed by others and I didn't think "+1s" would help the discussion. In data sabato 19 aprile 2014 11:11:18, Connor Behan ha scritto: > Hah.

This is the quote I remembered agreeing with. And looking back at the discussion I have to admit that Bartłomiej didn't really argument against separate repo but expressed his desire for grsec in [community] instead. > You can pull all the excuses you want, but no consensus was reached. > Pressing ahead with something so controversial while the discussion is > still going on is a plain and simple lack of respect for the opinion and > advice of fellow developers and TUs. I am not saying that consensus was reached because it definetely was not, but at the same time I also don't feel like there is any need for consensus here as it seems to me that this is a package just like any other. Feedback was requested and taken into consideration, concerns were addressed and, as explained, this ended up being a self-contained package. If this results in problems that have not been considered it can be easily removed. -- Massimiliano "mtorromeo" Torromeo Arch Linux TU GPG: 0xDA2EE423
