When I read the policy like a lawyer I get answers like "this was not intended" and when I read the policy with common sense I get answers like the "Developper's reference is not policy" that Phil said in the discussion of #96458. I did think our policy contains the rules we follow to produce good packages and I was proud that we have something like this - at the moment I tend to see it as a piece of (virtual) paper that has less value than the words of the release manager. cu Adrian (who waits that ajt downgrades #97040) -- Nicht weil die Dinge schwierig sind wagen wir sie nicht, sondern weil wir sie nicht wagen sind sie schwierig.
