But I also fail to see any announcement about this. Is the DFSG
team just not interacting with d-devel (or d-d-announce), i.e. the
one place we expect contributors to read?
I don't think that we want all our teams to inform the project about
everything they do. It'd be just one more medium that people won't
read.
If it affects uploading developers, then very much I expect
information from all our teams. For some of them I know which IRC
channels to check, but this is already suboptimal.
As discussed upthread, it seems it would have been a good idea to have
a *discussion* first. Then we also don't need an announcement.
But silence is not the right way here.
Should the DFSG team discuss EVERY tool they use with the general
public, or does that only apply to technologies like systemd, or which
MTA to use, or which editor they should use to write rejections?
I prefer reading a wall of polite ai generated text 30 minutes after my
upload to getting a short "rejected, fix debian/copyright" after four
months.
Greetings
