I'm not sure what to redirect it to, given that I think the current tradeoff is the right one for the reasons I gave in my previous message. This doesn't seem to be much of an issue to me; Policy currently leaves it to the maintainer's discretion, and the maintainers seem to be doing reasonable things. I'm not seeing a compelling need for Policy to weigh in here. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
