Dear Fellow Developpers, I agree with this sentiment from Andreas Metzler, on 2026-11-12:
> The last GR showed that LLM-usage is something where our > opinions are very much divided and strong. Inference engines usage had strong repercutions in productivity, but also in human interactions. Some people are doing great by using inference, but some people just cannot do things if they know this is going to trigger an inference. At this point of the discussion, I don't expect this to be a matter of inference engines not being technically "good enough" yet, but a matter of people's boundaries. My feeling is that, to keep the community of Debian contributors in proper shape, it is necessary to be able to accomodate the two kind of people. I believe this relates to our diversity statement[1] to some extent, because I think the two kind of people, and all the ones between the two extremes, can carry great contributions to Debian project. [1]: https://www.debian.org/intro/diversity If I understand the situation correctly, the best chance to get to a reasonable resolution would be to accomodate people's preferences on whether to trigger an inference upon NEW upload. I don't expect a team's preferrence would work, because I have witnessed the two ends of the spectrum within a single team. In hope to steer this discussion toward a path of progress, May you go in peace, :) -- .''`.
