I agree to the point that in *some* cases I dealt with copyright files that were touched only by two persons: Once by me when writing it and once by ftpmaster when reading it. This seems like spending time of two people who might do something more fruitful things for our users caused by an interpretation of our policy which is obviously not shared by every contributor to this thread. I admit I became used to simply follow ftpmaster requests blindly since this was the less time consuming way to deal with the problem. Discussions here on debian-devel list leaded close to never to a response by ftpmaster and thus were no efficient means to let a package passing new. In general I'm very happy with ftpmaster work since frequently there were real issues. I'm not happy with e-mail communication with ftpmaster but I learned that IRC can fix this in most cases. I'm happy that our ftpmasters take over some work I would not like to do myself and thus a repeated thank you guys Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
