I'm not insisting on anything. I honestly don't care where the repository is; on the contrary, something on d.o (where I do have other packages) would mean I wouldn't have to maintain main own infrastructure. As I said, my current focus is on changes beneficial to the users, hence these RFSed revisions have the necessary packaging updates and the next RFS (should I not get my DM flag back until then) will concern upstream updates (with library transition and all). Those are large and significant changesets. Only then will I look at the upstream (cvs|svn)->git transition problem and, by extension, how my resulting repo will look like, and where it will be. The latter is simply of no value to the user and therefore not a priority to me at the moment. I understand perfectly well that you have conditions to your sponsorship, and I think they are quite reasonable. I just cannot fulfill them at this time. But my RFS only went out two days ago, so let's give it some time. Regards, Christian -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
