I don't understand the sudden scrutiny about skill level. What about the newest TU? He was putting out these kinds of PKGBUILDs [1] as of Feb 6, 2013. He was accepted as a TU on Feb 26, 2013, just a few weeks after thinking that a package should start with pkgrel=0, that it should provide and replace itself, that it should manually extract its source for no reason, etc. My 2 cents: - If that's the kind of skill level that makes the cut these days, then graysky seems to far exceed it. - If that level of skill shouldn't have made the cut, then Arch's TU voting process needs to be refined so that it's based more on tangible qualifications than fleeting popularity.
