Hi all knowing that the BTS is *not* a voting system and with deep respect about the work done in Debian and also in the X-system, i still feel the need to raise my voice.
As a long term Debian user, running multiple servers and enduser systems across multiple releases i feel a bit scared about the current direction. I've always choosen Debian due to its simplicity, due to the possibility to trim it down to a bare minimum which fits my needs. As time goes by, i feel this is getting less and less possible. I absolutely see the point in HAL, DBus, and all the other technologies, i understand the need for it and i certainly have nothing agains it. But please, stick to the bare minimum, only depending on what's really needed and leave everything else to recommendations. (that's the defininition of "Depends" for me...) Just my two cents, thanks and kind regards, Pascal
