Are you seriously saying that - the kernel mainatiners should step down - the xorg maintainers should step down - the mozilla maintainers should step down - the gnome maintainers should step down - the kde maintainers should step down - the xfce maintainers should step down - the openoffice/libre office maintainers should step down - ... And who do you think should step up ? /Sune -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
