Firstly, I don't think this follows.  It is right that the criteria
for accepting a new package are stricter than the criteria for
removing an existing one.

Secondly, the actual question of what should be in these packages is
precisely a policy question.  We should decide what our policy is and
then apply it.  (Of course examples can illuminate the policy.)  So I
don't think your queston can be answered until we know what the policy
should be.

By "don't disagree" I don't mean "agree".  I mean that the rejection
seems plausible and I haven't seen enough arguments to have a firm
opinion.

If the policy we decide on is that the packages with just symlinks
should be folded into the packages they provide links to, then yes
those packages should be fixed but it is IMO unlikely to be sensibly
considered an RC bug.

Coming back to this specific rejection (I have already started a
discussion on policy question in d-policy), do you agree node-backbone
(and all other packages currently in archive and match the criteria of
rejection used for node-three, ie, a binary package with just symlinks
and a package.json) should be removed from the archive? If that is the

(already in the archive for years).

This is based on my past experience with multiple packages where same
criteria was interpreted differently by different ftp masters (At least
3 cases I can quote 1. node-babel-preset-env was rejected but
node-rollup was accepted, both can't be bootstrapped without a binary
upload first. 2. I was asked to make a single handlebars package, by
waldi, but it was accepted by Chris 3. There was long discussion on
node-babel but it was easily resolved when another ftp master was involved).

This is the first I'd heard of this being a policy question.  How
about you discuss the team policy and the reasons behind it on
d-policy CC the javascript list.  If you wish to retain the policy,
but ftpmaster disagree with it, you can escalate the policy question
to the TC.

The TC are empowered to "Decide on any matter of technical policy".
If the TC endorse your policy then I don't doubt that ftpmaster will
stop rejecting packages for complying with it.

And no, I didnt say one can not ever challenge a reject, although one
can put that meaning in my words, sorry for that. Quite the contrary,
despite other rumours, we are all just humans, and humans make mistakes.
And we are open to be told about such and do admit them, and yes, that
does happen.

But if you continously "run into the same wall", then it does not do any
good to assume its that one person hating you and that, if you happen to

Also, possibly we should adjust our communications here, at least get

My point was: either dissent or agreement, another member should respond
to indicate it is a team decision rather than waiting for random number
of days in case a decision was challenged (I did not imply there was a
dissent). But Joerg already clarified that decisions are coordinated.

So the only realistic options are, 1. Just do what they say irrespective
of its technical merit or following team standards 2. Get it overruled
by a GR which is really unlikely to succeed.

So in this specific case, I will add these files to libjs-three. I think
ftp masters don't want to distinguish between browser environment and
node environment, but just have one package. See
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=837467#22 for a

number of binary packages is more important than following JavaScript
team policy https://wiki.debian.org/Javascript/Policy which says "should

I also propose we abandon the current Javascript team policy because it
is not supposed to be followed. Just have one binary package for every
source package irrespective of it is useful for node or browser.

We should not wait for dissent just forever. The issue you mention was
rejected by ftp-masters, then brought to the TC, then dismissed by the
TC as not-our-role-to-overrule-delegates, and some more days
passed. Do you really think there's a brewing dissent within the
ftp-masters team that has not yet bubbled to become public?

For the avoidance of doubt, I don't have a problem with the specific
decision of ftpmaster here.  But I do think that better communication
is essential.

I hope that most REJECTs are accepted by the package's submitters as
being correct, and the problems are fixed.  REJECT messages are
necessarily short.

But when a submitter disagrees with a REJECT, and asks for a review,
IMO submitter is entitled to a longer explanation, and there should
explicitly be an opportunity for other ftpmasters to agree or dissent.

I think this could be easily implemented as follows:

When decision of ftpmaster is challenged by the submitter, or
clarification is requested, the original decisionmaker should write a
draft response and circulate it amongst the ftpmaster colleagues.

After a week or two, if no-one on the team has disagreed, that
response should be sent to the submitter.

The ftpmaster team should explicitly state in its public web pages how
long a submitter should have to wait for such an
explanation/confirmation.  Also they should explicitly state what the
submitter should do if a response is not received.

Finally, final ftpmaster responses should explicitly state what the
correct escalation path is if the submitter still disagrees.

I don't think any of this would be very onerous for the ftpmaster team
to do.  Ultimately in these cases ftpmasters end up having to write
messages like Joerg's.  It would be better to have clearer
communication on a technical level, earlier.

If a particular submitter is causing a disproportionate amount of
work, the situation should probably be discussed with the DPL.

Ian.

Thanks for the clarification. I was thinking about it more like how the
courts work in India (possibly in other countries too). When a single
judge decides on a case, there is always an option to appeal to larger
bench (more number of judges).

The team as a whole has to weigh in only when the decision of a single
team member is challenged and such a review is requested.

There are also cases the same criteria was applied differently by two
different ftp masters. node-babel-preset-env was rejected for depending
on itself, but node-rollup was accepted even though it depended on
rollup (a binary package created by node-rollup).

I don't think it is healthy to not have an option of reviewing
individual members decisions.

That leaves me only GR as a possible escalation route. I will think
about it.

I wonder why you think "a single ftpmaster". We are a team. We closely
coordinate what we do and how we do it. When one of us rejects, the team
rejects - it just happens to be a random one of us doing it. Others do
not need to get involved and review everything. Or we wouldn't ever be

I only said other team members did not respond even when I asked if this

even if they agree with other team member in case a response from the

Apologies, but this reads like another non-sequitur to me. Why would deciding
on a number of days before one can assume _no_ dissent make any difference at
all to the case of three.js given that you are claiming there _is_ dissent?

It seems ftp masters are literally the masters with only a GR powerful
enough to over turn their decisions. See
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=881339#55

I do not think this is really in sync with the rest of debian
philosophy. I think the following steps would improve the situation.

1. If a single ftp master is in disagreement, there should be a team
decision (in previous cases of disagreement also, other team members did
not get involved).
2. CTTE should be able to overrule a delegate when there is a conflict
just like conflict between two debian developers.

Does other ftp masters agree with this assessment of considering the
size of the package as the only criteria to accept or reject a package?
I don't agree with forcing other contributors to do extra, non standard,
hacks instead of following the standards were applicable.

node-three is the standard way for every node tools including webpack to
find this package. Having to replicate this structure for every
depending package is not acceptable.

I have not objected to every rejection, where it made sense I have
already embedded some modules (is-svg, unique-slug for example, and
switching to a embed first and package on second dependency approach in
general), but I don't agree with this case.

If you have one user installing 10MB of code, you maybe waste this 10MB.
If you have 1M users download packages files with this 1k entry, you
waste 1GB every time.

But we need package.json installed in default nodejs path
(/usr/lib/nodejs) for node tools like webpack to find these files. It
just adds extra custom code to make these files visible to webpack which
I'd really like to avoid. Nodejs modules follow a common standard and
having to add custom code to other packages is not good in my opinion.
I'd like to hear from other javascript team members on this.
