Wrong list. While there are some developers here, debian-devel is probably better. Most of us are users with little to no insight into Debian policy. However, the default group for directories also varies. Debian defaults to a group with the same name as the new user that only has that user as a member. Other distributions default to a group named "users" that includes all the "normal" users on the system. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =.
