I think it would be better to hack whatever makes Packages to elide the Trove categories for testing, if that's what you're concerned about. Personally, I'd rather not support Trove than have my package held in unstable for ages. (I'm still not sure how I feel about Trove/Freshmeat-style categorization, but if you can get enough people together to write a policy and a data set, I'll support it) Daniel -- /-------------------- Daniel Burrows <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -------------------\ | Whom the gods would destroy, they first teach BASIC. | \------------- Got APT? -- Debian GNU/Linux http://www.debian.org ------------/
