Hmmm... I just assumed that if we wanted to _stop_ using a resource, noone would complain... generally the problem is the other way around :) I think that we can stop using it is implied. I think it's tough to force someone to use a resource- Donor: "Here, we're giving you bandwidth and you'll use it, by golly!!" SPI: "Err... OK, we'll use it, no problem." SPI then writes a script to mirror potato back and forth a few times a day. Donor: "Hey, that's not what we meant by use- we're withdrawing the bandwidth!" SPI: "OK, thank you." Problem solved. :) OK, the above case is a figment of my (sometimes creative) imagination... but you see what I mean by noone being able to force you to use a service. Plus, this is about the 5th time this resolution has been proposed, and I think its about as done as a potato. Not the Debian potato, that is, but a real one. Never mind. Just vote for it. :) Nils.
