That wouldn't be a bad idea at all. In the recent DPL interview: http://www.newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=04/12/23/2023223 Martin indicated that Debian now contains over 10,000 packages. That is HUGE. I would think some culling has to happen at some point either using bug counts or, as has been suggested, an analysis of popcon results. Or both. Although zero package usage would also result in zero bug reports ;-) Steve
