I respect Norbert for the work he did on Plasma/KF/Application packages. I do not think it is fair to speak of him (or anyone else) as clown. From what I have perceived he contributed a lot to make timely releases of packages happen. I don't know what is going on here… what this demotion thing about, so I do not comment directly on it. I never had any issues with Norbert. Generally speaking more and more I have the impression that in Debian political arguments became more important than actually getting work done in the recent years. I bet that is part of the reason why I switched to Devuan for all my private systems. Ciao, -- Martin
