 Thanks a lot for forwarding it, I truly appreciate that, it happens
far too seldom unfortunately.

 You are right, hard to decide what campaign to install indeed.

 I know ;)

 Hmm, tricky, because some of them might be a bit verbose. Especially
I'm a bit indifferent here. It should be a package description and not a
campaign description after all. How about maybe only extracting the
campain rating and adding the "(Expert level, 11 scenarios)" part?

 Because well, about the other part of the description, there is too
much diversity in the length of it. Some have just a one line thing
which would be nice - but take a look at the length of Northern Rebirth;
or Scepter of Fire which even is a rhyming thing and propably, if added,
should get added padded with two spaces infront of it so it aligns
properly...

 If you are fine with just the short overview about the difficulty and
the amount of scenarios we have a deal. ;)

 Btw., I know that you are in hard freeze, I've spoken to Hobbsee about
an exception to add it already so that should be fine. I though won't do
an immediate upload for this package description (and the smallgui
option) before the end of the week because of the Debian own testing
transition (no upload within the next four days, sorry). If we can agree
on something I have though no problem to send you the source for that
which I plan to upload after that happened (if I also find the time for
it) so you can fasttrack the package already? Would that be fine with
you?

 So long,
Rhonda
