There's no need for it to be silent. The idea was raised that, after a period of silent deprecation, the recognition of source format 1.0 could cause a warning. The only point I've been trying to understand is, regardless of how format 1.0 packages are handled once recognised, why the current undeclared format 1.0 packages can't be recognised as such indefinitely without any change in those packages. -- \ “We jealously reserve the right to be mistaken in our view of | `\ what exists, given that theories often change under pressure | _o__) from further investigation.” —Thomas W.
