But since you bring it again, here some questions about the "900+": - Where does this number come from? - Are all of them unique? - How many of them are now DDs? - How many of them have actually a package in our archive? - How many of them are inactive now? And last but not least: please keep in mind that DM in the sense of this proposal is very different from "maintainer of a package in the archive".
