Package: developers-reference Version: 3.4.1 Severity: wishlist The Developer's Reference contains a section on Retiring giving instructions on the recommended way to retire from the project.
I am under the impression that following this process causes the developer's key to be placed in the "emeritus" keyring, from which it's easier to obtain full DD status again if the developer should decide to return to Debian. I'm not exactly sure what the current handling is, (which is why I'd like to see some treatment of the topic in the reference), but I did find the following post from 2005 which describes the process that was instituted at that point: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2005/02/msg00003.html [See section 4, "Emeritus (ex-Developer) Handling"] Thank you for your attention, -Carl -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
