And packages can always be requested.
sounds sensible to me. questions: - how will the import be done? - is it up for the maintainer to request it? or only for non-base system packages? - or does the maintainer has a magic command to do? - will submitting a package for rebuild bork the list of maintainer (mdv uses the "maintainer = 1st to submit" scheme) - do we have an estimated planning with the different steps? jérôme -- [email protected]
