I don't think it makes sense to bother *all* those same folks with C++ transitions, Python policy changes, different version control systems, and and..., just because the software has an educational use. Those interested in both infrastructural development of a CDD and specific packaging of an educational piece of software can simply join both teams - but when mixing then you make it more complex to join and help out. > But if it is a software which will be used both in Debian and > Debian-edu and moreover if it's a small package, only one person > should be in this field. There's nothing wrong in teams with only a sinlge person. The difference between single-person teams and personal maintainance is the difficulty for person number two to join later on. - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er nær: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDrV2In7DbMsAkQLgRAgrcAKCb2g6wKnQkdGyOe5vQMJO4UMZ6gwCfTlr2 cmnV7GFU8Z9RGyHiYBqK5+E= =OBx9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
