Since Debian is making a distribution, not video cards and monitors, this
information doesn't really apply to us.
If you can find the DDC specification on Vesa's site without paying money,
we'd all be very happy. :)

What tangible changes are you suggesting?
Anyone can currently submit dpkg patches to the BTS, and if they want to
handle the flames, any developer can do a NMU of dpkg.
I think the problem is the lack of people that really *really* understand
the dpkg source, and there's no way f
to use the software (although there's a large amount of letter-

There is currently no technical committee (this is why we need one of

3. have hundreds of other security holes because of #2, making this one

4. have admins who usually wouldn't get debianized source anyway, or if

Can you send this to me via e-mail? I don't have an account on master yet.
Also I've been hearing that there's a namespace conflict between nc

easier to rename the latter because it's not a backend

chiark it should also be in alldone/ temporarily.
That should be enough to allow inclusion in hamm.
Also, netcat is conflicting with another package, nedit. The nedit client
