That's a bit of a special case, no?

I don't see what your problems is, really. the SuperH Packages.gz inside
Debian has been useless since many years. The real-life impact of the
change Anthony did is zero. Well, not zero -- it removes some megs from
every mirror that don't do any good anyway.

If you remove cruft from one of your packages, do you start notifying
developers on d-d-a?

This is exactly the same thing.

binary-sh found on ftp-master was just a cruft; superh is really
waiting to be merged from outside of Debian.

We have several out-of-debian trees for Debian superH.

Well, there are always people who complain.  But posting development
related mails to debian-devel is the intended purpose of this list
and there is less reason to complain then it is if people do not at
least mark their postings [OT] when they are chatting about other
distributions on debian-devel.

So, if you ask me it would be better if messages like the one Anthony
blogged would be here in the first place and the blog would say: "I
just posted this or that to debian-devel ..." :)

Kind regards

   Andreas.

Even so you informed the porters it would have been nice to just drop a
mail on -devel? Where is the problem in writing a mail to -devel? Going
this way everybody would be informed and noone can complain afterwards.

I think you'll find the correct place is the -sh list, which was notified:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-superh/2002/04/msg00010.html

The "sh" arch in unstable has consisted of "Architecture: all" packages only
since then.

HTH, HAND.

Nice you have done this, but Planet is definitely not the correct place
to document changes like this. I would find it more appropriate to
inform fellow DDs either via debian-devel@ or [EMAIL PROTECTED] Not all
developers read planet.debian.org.

To get that clear, i don't want to criticize you removed unneeded SuperH
architecture from the archive, but where you document changes like this.

Greetings
Martin

PS: CC'ed -devel to get fellow developers informed about your changes.
