Correct. > First of all, I do think we can, per 4.1.3 (as others have already > pointed out). However, I don't think that is relevant; "Debian will seek > to do foo" doesn't mean "Debian will do foo", and "This process will be > undertaken under the following constraints" means "if done, this is how > it'll be done".

This means that the whole thing is basically completely unnecessary because the DPL could already form a declassification team if he wants. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
