Max,
I can understand your position and respect the desire not to dilute
the Fink policy unless absolutely positively necessary, even if-- in this
one case-- I disagree.
And I *fully* support your proposal regarding a third party section.
I actually have a few Fink packages I have put together that will never be
accepted because they completely violate policy; the most notable being
the Jode package (as it installs a binary).
It would be nice if there was a mechanism for injecting a hunk of
.info files into fink; ones that are completely unsupported or totally
local.

We gladly feast on those who would subdue us.
