Other readers of -project only can look to its archives and http://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/ for the recent history. AFAICT: - Sven and some of d-i team seem unable to cooperate; - Sven has powerpc skills which look vital to d-i and haven't been replaced; - the mediator appointed by the DPL has quit; and - both sides seem to be showing unverifiable quotes from the other, such as > Ah, but it is clear d-i policy that anyone who contributes to d-i (except me) > can have commit access, Frans even told so that he would give commit access to > everyone, DD or not DD, who would help him replace me. Where is the d-i commit access policy stated? The nearest I found was http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/svn which isn't very clear. Will there be a working d-i on powerpc without Sven Luther's contributions? I can't figure out from (the rather slow from here) http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/d-i/ whether anyone else works on that. Using the search on View Log produces many PHP warnings and time-outs before returning much else. As far as I can see from http://bugs.debian.org/debian-installer, Sven is still the main handler of recent powerpc bug reports. Will anything other than direct commit access satisfy Sven? I browsed a lot of emails and didn't find an obvious answer.
