Dear interested parties, I would like to express my appreciation for everyone's valuable input; the time and effort put into this matter. I doubt there is much left to be added as both sides argued at length.
Speaking from a technological point of view, I want to restate that I also do not like the current extreme vendoring situation (which plagues Go, especially, but not only). In the particular case of Kubernetes though, while it is not ideal, I still do not see a better way for now. I have tried to carefully weigh this in March, and have reevaluated it again over the past few months. After the TC decides I am planning carry on with the work to make Kubernetes happen in Debian, in some form or another. For example. at the moment it is quite some work to set up a workable cluster (I have set up test clusters passing the integration tests with every binary I have uploaded). Speaking personally, as a DD since 2001, I have read copious amounts of bickering on debian-private and debian-devel. So I was pretty sure that a heated discussion is all but unavoidable. I was not looking forward to it, but I wanted progress. I have attempted to convey this in README.Debian too, but in retrospect those were not the most cooling words either, and I am sorry for that (reworded in 1.19.4-2, linking to this bug). The amount of personal insults I have received, both publicly and in private, is truly alarming :-( Debian will blaze ahead with or without Kubernetes in stable (or at all), it won't however work at all without people. Thank you. -- LÉNÁRT, János <o...@debian.org>
